    How do you drag down an index match function with multiple criteria?

    Hi All,

    I have the following index match formula in cell W3

    =INDEX($R$2:$R$293,MATCH(1,($N$2:$N$293=$U3)*($L$2:$L$293=W$2),0),0)

    It works like a charm but i have multiple values in column U and want to be able to drag this down in U4, U5, ... such that data from $U4 and $U5 is being pulled in. Unfortunately, if i drag this formula down and hit ctrl shift enter, all of the values still reference U3. Any idea how to get around this?

    Thanks,

    L

    Wrong order.... Do the CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER first and then drag down.

    Don't fill all cells and hit ctrl shift enter...

    Instead, enter it in just the first (top) cell
    hit ctrl shift enter
    THEN drag down.
