    Match-Index in stead of Index-Match lookup Array among Arrays

    Dear all,

    For a particular sheet i'm supposed to find the corresponding array out of a list of array's, but only if the title of the array corresponds.
    In the grey box should be written Dog or Cat for example, and then the corresponding array should be copied into the box.

    Is this douable with a Match-index function? I tried several approaches with Index(;Match()) but it failed

    Thanks
    Numnum

    You need to use a formula like

    =INDEX($C$11:$H$30,MATCH($C$3,$C$11:$C$30,FALSE)+ROW(A2),COLUMN(A1))

    as in the attached:

    Thank you for the quick response, this worked flawlessy.
    I tried to use =INDEX((C14:H17,C23:H26,C30:H33),MATCH($C$3,$C$12:$C$28,0),,V.LOOKUP($C$3,$J$5:$K$7,2)) but then it responded the bird array instead of the dog array.

    Seems I have still to learn a lot about this function.

    Greetings
