    Issue in Index/Aggregate formula

    I am struggling with the following formula in that attached workbook

    Under Summary tab, I have posted highlighted yellow the result I want from the drawing list and put the formula in a couple of lines below…

    =INDEX('Drawing list'!$B:$B,AGGREGATE(15,6,ROW('Drawing list'!$B$6:$B$
    50))/(('Drawing list'!$G$6:$G$50=$B8)*('Drawing list'!$C$6:$C$50=$E8)*('Drawing list'!$D$6:$D$50=$F8)*('Drawing list'!$E$6:$E$50=$G8)),ROWS(D$8:D8))

    I have learnt such a formula here, but sometimes have to play around with it to get it to work, but this time no matter what I do I cant get it to work
    I am presuming the error is in this section:

    INDEX('Drawing list'!$B:$B,AGGREGATE(15,6,ROW('Drawing list'!$B$6:$B$750))/

    I am never quite sure what the B:B and ('Drawing list'!$B$6:$B$750) are doing? Sso I never know till I get the result if I am using this section correctly - its a trial and error story! Can anyone explain what these sections are doing?

    Re: Issue in Index/Aggregate formula

    Did 'Drawing No.' , 'Section' , 'Area/floor' and 'Plan or elev' is unique ?
    If yes

    Menem

    I an not sure if I understand what you mean about "unique" but the formula's appear to work - at least for the drawings here - I had a few wobblies when I tried to take it to the actual spreadsheet - so I may need to come back to this!
