I can't figure out the formula I need for the life of me. I have a table with 2 headers. Top Header is a list of classes, the left header is the list of Skills. I need to match up the two and return the result of that crossmatched cell.
The two formulas I am using to select which row and which column headers I need to match are as follows.
Vlookup('Fill In'.B3;'Class Info'.A1:BC423;55;0)
LOOKUP(Calculations.H6;Skills.A1:R86;Skills.A1:A86)
1st is the Top header info and 2nd is the left header info.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Re: Finding Formula to match two points.
It can be something like this
I would gladly rewrite this formula for you in your terms, but I could not understand the relationship of'Fill In'.B3 - 'Class Info'.A1:BC423 -
Calculations.H6 - Skills.A1:R86
Update Oh, I see 3.3.1 in your signature. I don't remember if in this version the function N()
Code: Select all
=OFFSET(<start_of_table>;N(MATCH(<row_header>;<first_column_of_table>;0));N(MATCH(<column_header>;<first_row_of_table>;0)))
Calculations.H6 - Skills.A1:R86

I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you...

'Fill In'.B3 - 'Class Info'.A1:BC423 -
Calculations.H6 - Skills.A1:R86
Are referencing to cells and ranges on other sheets, ie, 'Fill In' is 'Sheet 1' on a new Document.
N() is an available function but it did not work when I plugged in it as you have it written, perhaps due to the multiple sheet issue.

Re: Finding Formula to match two points.
Probably my bad English is guilty - I still don't understand which cell contains the required row, which cell contains the desired column, and what range contains the table for searching.
Perhaps it would be easier to see a sample of your spreadsheet? I understand Calc's formulas better.
Or look how it's done in my sample

Re: Finding Formula to match two points.
Okay I see how you have it set up now. That isn't how I was trying to set it up but that can actually work. I'm gonna try to get it set up using my different sheets and I will let you know if it works out. Thanks for the help.
