    Index Match Based on One Date Criteria, Table Contains Beginning Date and End Date

    My first post here for assistance.

    I have a table in cells A1:C4 as follows:
    A B C D E
    1 Name ArriveDate DepartDate Query Date
    2 Smith 10/1/14 10/8/14 10/25/14
    3 Black 10/22/14 10/29/14 Name
    4 Jones 11/14/14 11/21/14

    I've assigned Range Names to each column in the table: Name, ArriveDate and DepartDate

    My criteria is the date in cell E2: 10/25/14. I want a formula that would place a name in cell E4 where the ArriveDate is <= 10/25/14 and the DepartDate is >= 10/25/14.

    I tried this formula in cell e4:
    =(index(Name,Match(1,(value($e$2)>=ArriveDate)*(value($e$2)<=DepartDate),0))

    ... but it didn't work. (I hit CONTROL + SHIFT + ENTER and the formula went into the cell, but no brackets).

    I'm assuming that I cannot use the >= and <=, but I do not know how to accomplish this another way - the data in the table cannot be sorted in order to accommodate a match type.

    Any assistance you might provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help.

    Using your formula (but removing an extra () )...
    =INDEX(Name,MATCH(1,(VALUE($E$2)>=ArriveDate)*(VALUE($E$2)<=DepartDate),0))
    also this...
    =INDEX(Name,MATCH(1,(ArriveDate<=E2)*(DepartDate>=E2),0))
    ARRAY entered CTRL SHIFT ENTER, gives me an answer of black?
