    INDEX/MATCH - duplicate values, need to return all

    Hello,

    so i ran into this problem using the INDEX + MATCH combination.

    I pretty much have to look up the values (price), for each sock pair, from the
    little table above. However, using either INDEX or VLOOKUP, returns only the first 4 values,
    since all the others are duplicates. That being said, i need it to return every single one of them.

    How to get around this problem?

    Please post a file (as many of us can't view PNG images) showing expected results.

    Try these
    =INDEX(B$6:B$9,MATCH(C13,A$6:A$9,0))

    Re: INDEX/MATCH - duplicate values, need to return all

    You need to lock the ranges of your formulae, so that the ranges searched remain the same as you copy the formula down.

    for example:

    =INDEX(B6:B9,MATCH(C13,A6:A9,0)) should be:

    =INDEX($B$6:$B$9,MATCH(C13,$A$6:$A$9,0))
