    Hlookup and Match or Index and Match?

    I have the following table on worksheet 3

    A | B | C | D
    1 Building Name | Renewal | Expansion | New
    2 House | 6 | 3 | 6
    3 Office | 5 | 5 | 7

    On my worksheet 1, I have two dropdown boxes: B7 (that gives the building name) and B11 which gives the Type of Commission (Renewal, Expansion, New)

    B 20 is supposed to automatically select the percentage based upon what B7 and B11 select. E.g. B7 = House, B11 = Expansion then B20 should be 3.

    This is my formula.
    =HLOOKUP(B7,'Building Details'!$A$2:$R$24,MATCH(B11,'Building
    Details'!$A$2:$R$2,0))

    Thanks

    Try:

    =Index('Building Details'!$A$2:$R$24,Match(B7,'Building Details'!$A$2:$A$24,0),Match(B11,'Building Details'!$A$2:$R$2,0))
    Where there is a will there are many ways.

    It's definitely an INDEX(MATCH,MATCH) formula:

    =INDEX('Building Details'$B$2:$R$24,MATCH(B7,'Building Details'$A$2:$A$24,0),MATCH(B11,'Building Details'$B$1:$R$1,0))
