    Problems with Offset + Match function

    So I've got something I'm working on right now that I've been suggested to use a VLOOKUP on, and it looks like this:

    Right away, my problem is that whenever I type in 8 in the number of stores cell, it automatically returns a value of 0 regardless of what I put in # of compliant stores.

    On the other hand, with some of the lower number of stores, it also doesn't display correctly:

    See here, with 2 compliant stores / 3 total stores the resulting score should be a 3, but here it returns a 4. Where did things go wrong here?

    Please upload a workbook or a representative cut down copy, anonymised if necessary. It is always easier to advise if we can see your request in its context.

    Show a before and after situation with manually calculated results, explaining which information is data and which is results, and if it's not blindingly obvious how you have arrived at your results some explanatory notes as well.

    Sorry. Here's a copy of the file, with only the part I took a picture of.

    D8 (for # of stores) and E8 (for # of compliant stores) are the input cells, and B8 should be the result - which they're supposed to get the value from on the table on the right. The corresponding values aren't something I can change, as they're only given to me to make a function out of in Excel.

    Re: Problems with Offset + Match function

    How about just this?
    =INDEX($L$6:$S$13,MATCH(D8,K6:K13,0),MATCH(E8,$L$5:$S$5,0))
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
