    .Find header and column in another workbook and copy the cell that matches both

    I have to find a value in another workbook that matches both a row header and a column header then copy that value back.

    In the first workbook I have three column headers, Date and Name and Value. In the second workbook, column A is all dates and row 1 is all names. I have to find the value in the second workbook that matches both the Date and Name from the first workbook and paste it under Value column in the first workbook.

    Edit: I just realized that this would be a lot easier to do using the match function.

    Ariadust, you are correct, index/match will do that for you. if you have a problem setting it up let me know
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you
