    Index/Match Criteria

    Hi everyone,

    Is it possible to do an index/match function with 3 criteria? This is my current formula.


    =IFERROR(INDEX(Master!$G$4:$G$6770,MATCH($B7&$J$5,Master!$B$4:$B$6770&Master!$H$4:$H$6770,0)),"")

    B7 = Contract Number
    J5 = Bonding Type

    I'm wanting to add a 3rd criteria for project name. So for example, could it also look on the Master tab, column "AL" for when the cell value is equal to APWP? So it would match Contract #, Bonding Type, and Project Name.

    Thanks for the help.

    Try ... NOT TESTED

    MATCH($B7&$J$5&"APWP",Master!$B$4:$B$6770&Master!$H$4:$H$6770&Master!$AL$4:$AL$6770,0))

    Else send a short Excel sample
    - Battle without fear gives no glory - Just try

    Re: Index/Match Criteria

    When I am trying to select something with more than one criteria I often use a helper column with what I call a "composite index."

    So if you are looking for a record whose uniqueness depends on a combination of contract number, bonding type and project name, then I make a helper column with the formula [contract number] & ":" & [bonding type] & ":" & [project name]. The delimiters aren't really necessary, but they make the composite index easier to read.
    One spreadsheet to rule them all. One spreadsheet to find them. One spreadsheet to bring them all and at corporate, bind them.

    A picture is worth a thousand words, but a sample spreadsheet is more likely to be worked on.
