Excel Formula Help
I have an issue and not sure of the best formula to use.
I need to do a double look up, i have a list of races and the selections going down the page and need to lookup a runner using the race name as the first lookup then continue down and use the runner number as the second look up, the info i need will be located 5 rows over from this. I have used a formula like this before. =INDEX($AA$1:$AT$499,MATCH($BD3,$Z$1:$Z$499,0)+4,9 ) This would only work if i knew where the info was in relation to the race name, hope u understand what i need. |
Can you upload a sample worksheet showing how your data is set out Shaun?

Yes, difficult to solve without a sample, but....something like this?
=VLOOKUP(2,INDIRECT("B"&MATCH("Race 2",A:A,0)&":"&"H"&MATCH("Race 2",A:A,1)),7,FALSE) Where the 2 after the VLOOKUP is the horse number you're looking for and "Race 2" is the name of the race that you're after. |

Sorry my bad, the column in blue is the reference, as you see there are individual races and each runner has a reference of 1 or 2 so what i need is to say look up the race then look up the runner reference then return the runner name.

=VLOOKUP(1,INDIRECT("A"&MATCH("VR02",A:A,0)&":"&"E"&MATCH("VR02",A:A,1)),3,FALSE)
Returned "Ella Supero" |
