    Picking up Data with Lookup Formula

    Hi all,

    I'm trying to pick up data and reflect it in a gantt chart (using conditional formatting).
    Please refer to my attached file for better understanding.

    I have tried to use lookup formula (following the conditional formatting formula) to reflect the Ship Name in the gantt chart based on the raw data on the left tables.
    However, if I input the same range date for different Equipment name, the formula will always pick up the last Ship name into the gantt chart.

    Example:
    EY 01 = 1 July - 3 July, Ship ABC --> it picks up DEF instead of ABC in the gantt chart on the right
    EY 02 = 1 July - 3 July, Ship DEF

    Appreciate your help, thanks!

    Re: Picking up Data with Lookup Formula

    I thought they had to be "*" instead of "/" on a LOOKUP of that sort.
    Does this work

    =IF(ISNA(LOOKUP(2,1/(($G5=$C$6:$C$1000)*(H$4>=$A$6:$A$1000)*(H$4<=$B$6:$B$1000)),$D$6:$D$1000)),"",LOOKUP(2,1/(($G5=$C$6:$C$1000)*(H$4>=$A$6:$A$1000)*(H$4<=$B$6:$B$1000)),$D$6:$D$1000))

    =IF(ISNA(formula),"",formula)

    Ensure you describe your problem clearly, I have little time available to solve these problems and do not appreciate numerous changes to them.
