    Lookup values given a range of dates and variable name (difficult)

    I have the following BIG problem: I want to extract some information from a data base given certain criteria like a data range and a specific job name. Already I tried with the MATCH, INDEX, VLOOKUP, but I don’t find the correct answer because I can find the first value of my job name, but when I want extract the second value there is a problem.

    Thanks for your help, attached is the file.

    Regards

    Try in K6 and copy down.

    =SUMPRODUCT(($A$2:$A$17=$H$3)*($B$2:$B$17>=$H$6)*($B$2:$B$17<=$H$7)*($C$2:$C$17=J6)*($D$2:$D$17))

    I think best if you set up a dummy column, let's say starting in F2 (you can hide this column later if you like)
    =IF(AND(A2=$H$3,B2>=$H$6,B2<=$H$7),$H$3&"_"&COUNTIF($F$1:F1,$H$3&"*"),"")

    Then in J2 dragged across and down
    =IFERROR(INDEX(C$2:C$17,MATCH($H$3&"_"&ROW(A1)-1,$F$2:$F$17,0)),"")
    See attachment
    Does that work for you?
