    Match & Index Problem

    Been trying to figure this out basically all day...

    Please see attached file.

    What I need is to create a data validation list that selects ONLY the unique day of the week (located under the "Nerves_Data" file). From there, any day of week selection would return all attributed Game Types and their respective "weeks till" data (11 columns)on separate rows.

    Any help would be much appreciated.. thank you.

    dilipandey -

    Thank you for the reply - much appreciated.

    The formula looks great in that it indexes the two fields that I wanted. However, is this able to reference data validation lists? So for example, the first data validation list would pull ONLY unique days, and the subsequent list would pull all relevant fields in relation to days.

    Then, I would use that formula to index and match those two. Please let me know if this is possible!

    Thanks in advance.
