    double lookup functions

    Hi, i have to get a lookup value from a table using 2 values.....

    imagine the table has values down the vertical column 1-10, and then across the top a-j, with all the data i need in the table between.....how would i get a formula to display the lookup thats in row 7 as well as column d??

    ive tried to put in a example table below

    thanks

    One way:

    =INDEX(B2:K11,MATCH(7,A2:A11,0),MATCH("d",B1:K1,0))

    There's a quicker way using space as an intersect operator but I can't remember how that works. Somebody else may.

    thanks, but what i really need isto be bale to drag the formula down a column on another sheet....

    basically i have 2 columns on another sheet. the first with the numbers in and the 2nd with the letters.....i want the 3rd column to be a formula which returns the value in the table i showed earlier that falls under the specific combination of number and letter.

    e.g

    12 a = ?
    8 d = ?
