    Nesting multiple INDEX and MATCH functions

    Hello

    Is it possible to nest multiple INDEX and MATCH functions?

    A singular function works for one range of information thus: =IF(D8=0,"",(INDEX(D20:D29,MATCH(D8,C20:C29,0)))) VLOOKUP also works for a single range.

    But I have 8 ranges consisting of 2 columns of information (with 10 entries each) thus I need 10 INDEX/MATCH functions.

    Please see the attached for further information.

    Thanks in advance for your help.....

    Hi,

    maybe in G8


    =IF(D8=0,"",(INDEX(C20:D29,MATCH(D8,C20:C29,0),MATCH(C8,C18:R18,0)+1)))

    Please try this function.

    =INDEX($C$13:$R$22,MATCH($D8,INDEX($C$13:$R$22,0,MATCH($C8,$C$11:$R$11,0)),0),MATCH($C8,$C$11:$R$11,0)+1)

    Re: Nesting multiple INDEX and MATCH functions

    Yes, it's possible to next Index/Match; another option is to run a dummy column that finds a MATCH and feed that into multiple INDEXes.


    Here is not really clear to me:
    1) The input
    2) The table from which you are looking up data associated with the input
    3) What the output(s) are
