    Vlookup with multiple criteria

    Hi,
    I have Sheet1 with a list of 10 investment strategies, each with 20+ brokers. Many brokers are listed in several strategies.

    I'm trying to do a VLOOKUP that checks for both the strategy and broker and grab some data for Sheet2. Here's what my dataset looks like (abbreviated):

    Large Growth - Bob (select data to the right is what I need)
    Large Growth - Pete
    Large Growth - Jack

    Small Value - Bob
    Small Value - Jack
    Small Value - Mike

    I tried looking at some past threads (with INDEX, MATCH, etc.) but couldn't get it to work.
    Thanks,
    Phillycheese5

    You can do a vlookup with concatenated text, i.e.,
    =vlookup(a1&b1,range,column)
