G GODZILLA New Member Feb 8, 2011 #3 Use index and match. =Index(Value,match(Sheet1.Location & Sheet1.Material,Sheet2.Location & Sheet2.Material,0)) then hold Ctrl Shift and enter. Replace Sheet1.Location etc with the cell you want to look up. What this does is index the column that contains the data by finding the location of the record using a Match. If you have not used it before it can look daunting but it is very basic once you know how.
