Default Lookup value based on 2 cell values

Hi BorderMaster,

As you can see by the last two responses, the earlier responses are
guesswork because you didn't show us what your data area looks like.

Good points T.V and HTH!

Do you have column headers in your table that are LCT, LCB ?

Like this:

...........D..........E...........F
1..................LCT......LCB
2.......0..........10..........12
3.......5..........14..........17
4.......7..........11..........20

If so:

=VLOOKUP(B1;D1:F4;MATCH(A1;D1:F1;0))

Hello all,

I am trying to find a way to search through a table the value based on
2 other cells. The 2 base cells have 9 and 10 different possibilities
respectively so this gives me a table with 90 options. How can I do
this? My first thought was something like this:

=IF(A1="LCT";VLOOKUP(B1;D1:M9;2);IF(A1="LCB";VLOOK UP(B1;D1:M9;3);...)

The problem is that I have more than 7 "IF" and I cannot do this in
Excel 2K3.

Can someone help me? I would like to be able to grow the table as
needed.

Thanks in advance.
