    ROW - I need to identify the row where 2 references match

    Hi

    I'm new to this and am struggling with what seems like an easy question. Please can someone help?

    I am putting together Project resource reports which draw data from different external spread sheets (forecast and actual data). I need to identify the row that contains the right project code in column B and the right name in column D in the highlighted cell. I can then use this to do a Hlookup on the date columns to pull in the hours allocated for that resource to the project per week.

    I have attached an example sheet. The first sheet is the results page and the second the source data and the highlighted cell where I need the row number to be captured.Row look up.xlsx

    Thank you so much...

    Hi
    Is this what you want.
    =LARGE((B2=Data!$B$1:$B$15)*(Result!B4=Data!$D$1:$D$15)*ROW(Data!$B$1:$B$15),1) CSE

    Will give you number 10 which is the row number of matched cells

    Re: ROW - I need to identify the row where 2 references match

    Thank you both very much!

    I have used the formula and in the wizard it says that the result is 10, but in the cell the number it is showing is 0...

    thanks you for your help

    I think the reason of error is CSE issue. After entering the formula hit Ctrl+Shift+Enter instead of just an enter.
