Try this:

1.......Bob.......x.........AA
2.......Sue.......x..........BB
3.......Bob.......z.........CC
4.......Sue.......a.........GG
5.......Tom......h.........FF

To lookup "Sue" and "a":

E1 = Sue
F1 = a

Array entered** :

=INDEX(C1:C5,MATCH(1,(A1:A5=E1)*(B1:B5=F1),0))

** array formulas need to be entered using the key combination of
CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER). Hold down both the CTRL key and the SHIFT
key then hit ENTER.

Actually the data that i want to be returned is both numeric and text
thats
why i had IF function.. in a typical VLOOKUP formula is should be like
this..

=VLOOKUP(B1,Data!A1:A1000,2,FALSE)

but since i only want to have the data that is equivalent to the date and
the name on the database thats why im to use this formula..

=VLOOKUP(IF((Data!A1:A1000=A1)*(Data!B1:B1000=D1), ....

that is also why im having problems in how to formulate the conditions in
the IF function and how to get the data using the VLOOKUP.

I hope you can help me.

Thank you so much.

Where is the data you want returned?

What is the data type of the value to be returned? Is it text? Numeric?

When there are multiple lookup_values you would typically use an array
formula** like this:

=INDEX(Data!C1:C10,MATCH(1,(Data!A1:A10=A1)*(Data! B1:B10=D1),0))

** array formulas need to be entered using the key combination of
CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER). Hold down both the CTRL key and the
SHIFT
key then hit ENTER.

LookUp(..etc...) )

will give you the count if there are more or fewer than one.
Otherwise, it performs the lookup.
