In the attached document, my index/match formula is only working for some rows. The formula is in the budget column on the GP Accts tab. I can't figure out why it works for some, but not others.

This part of your formula doesnt not always match
=MATCH($H2,Acct,0)
column H is defined as =RIGHT(A2,8)
but you're trying to match against the COMPLETE values in column A ???

Ensure you describe your problem clearly, I have little time available to solve these problems and do not appreciate numerous changes to them.
No, I'm not trying to match against the complete value in A. So, I just did a paste special value in Col H so that it is just a value instead of a formula. That didn't help my results though.
Basically, every cell in named range "Budget" that has a value, has a unique line on GP Accts tab. I just don't know why they aren't all pulling.
Hi narrowgate88,
It looks like your match criteria are the wrong way round. The INDEX function pulls in the row reference first and then the column.
Try:
=IFERROR(INDEX(Budget,MATCH(H2,Acct,0),MATCH(D2,Cost,0)),"")

Thank you Snook! That was exactly the problem. I knew it had to be something simple.
You're welcome, cheers for the rep points.
