From: John A on 28 Apr 2010 12:35 I have a gridchart that uses horizontal numbers and vertical numbers. The outside numbers are two sections of an exam. The internal numbers are the final score. Example below 1 2 3 4 5 55 62 63 64 65 66 56 64 66 68 70 72 57 66 68 70 72 74 58 68 70 72 74 76 I want to enter 2 numbers (shown on outside of grid)- lets say a 55 and a 4 for a particular student. What I want excel to do is enter the final score in a specified cell using the data on the grid I entered. So if I enter a 55 and a 4 for a student- Excel will put the final score of a 65 in the cell for that student. I beleive it is a vLookup function, but cannot figure it out. Please help me!! Thanks for any advice
From: Luke M on 28 Apr 2010 12:39 You actually need an INDEX function, which uses a row and column arguement. Assuming your grid is in B2:F5 =INDEX(B2:F5,MATCH(55,A2:A5),MATCH(4,B1:F1)) You can of course replace the 55 and 4 with the actual cell reference. -- Best Regards, Luke M "John A" <JohnA(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:9A593F9D-115E-4FDB-996A-4AE31AEA2CC1(a)microsoft.com... >I have a gridchart that uses horizontal numbers and vertical numbers. >The > outside numbers are two sections of an exam.

Assuming data in A1:F5 First number (55) in A20 Second Number in A21 =VLOOKUP(A20,$A$1:$F$5,A21+1,False) -- If this helps, please remember to click yes.
