    #N/A error on cross referencing

    I've attached a file where I am attempting to use a cross reference in order to find specific data points based on two variables. I am able to get the right result for the first cell, but after that all it comes up with is #N/A errors. I've tried change the order of the referencing values, but it doesn't seem to help. Any help is greatly appreciated, I assume I'm missing something pretty obvious.

    Use,

    =Index(Sheet1!$B$2:$L$7,match(B3,Sheet1!$B$1:$L$1,0),match(E3,Sheet1!$A$2:$A$7,0)

    Both of your formulas worked for the first cell but when I tried to drag it down I received #N/A errors. Am i doing something wrong here?

    Re: #N/A error on cross referencing

    #N/A means that the value is not found in the range.
    Notice my main language is not English.

    Re: #N/A error on cross referencing

    So I added the rounding portion and it now gives me values for every cell, but some of them are wrong. Is there a different method for imputing them I should use. Thanks for all your help.
