    Question Match Multiple Columns from Separate Sheet to get separate column.

    Hello,

    I'm sure there is a simple solution, so I hope I am clear in my explanation.

    I have a workbook with a Data sheet that will have info pasted into it from another source every quarter or so. I want to create a table in a different sheet that matches two columns from the data sheet. If both columns match, then I want data from a separate column. I want to check two columns (first name & last name) to prevent incorrect information.

    I have attached a small example.

    Sheet 2, A12 & B12 will have data typed manually. I want to check sheet 1, column B for last name AND sheet 1 column C for last name. If they both match, enter Column E(Teacher) in Sheet 2 Column 3.

    Excellent!

    Thank you. What would you call this situation? A typical INDEX MATCH formula with a helper column? It seems so simple now that I see it.

    I will return,

    Thanks again,
