    Index Match with multiple criteria (two lookup columns)

    Hi,

    I am looking to do an index match formula. I have two columns labeled Criteria 1 and Criteria 2. I have a third column labeled Result. I would like to do an index match formula that looks up a value in both the Criteria 1 and Criteria 2 columns and produces the correct result. However, I keep getting an error and don't know what I am doing wrong.

    I have attached an excel spreadsheet that shows an example of the above.

    Thanks

    Hello
    Your formula is an array formula and needs to be entered with Ctrl+Shift+Enter. If done correctly, you will see curly brackets {} around the formula. These, however, cannot just be typed in.

    As long as the combination of criteria are unique you can use this...

    =SUMIFS(C:C,A:A,H2,B:B,H3)
