    Help with nested Index Match formula

    Please help. I have been trying to get this formula to work for 2 hours now and I can't seem to figure out what is wrong with it.

    =INDEX(Lookup!$D$2:$J$529, MATCH($O4&$Q$3,Lookup!$C$2:$C$529,0), MATCH(P$3, Lookup!$D$1:$J$529, 0))

    I have attached a copy of my spreadsheet showing the raw data table and lookup table for reference.Archery Elk Stats.xlsx

    I didn't look at your file.

    In the last MATCH function the table_array range needs to be a single row.

    MATCH(P$3, Lookup!$D$1:$J$529, 0)

    Maybe it needs to be:

    MATCH(P$3, Lookup!$D$1:$J$1, 0))

    It is still resulting in a #N/A. :-(

    I can't download the file. I have a file size limit of 50kb.

    You can narrow down where the error is being generated by entering the individual MATCH functions by themselves in separate cells:

    =MATCH($O4&$Q$3,Lookup!$C$2:$C$529,0)

    =MATCH(P$3,Lookup!$D$1:$J$1,0)
