    Lookup / Index Match formula help

    I wonder if someone might be able to suggest the best formula to use - example file attached.

    In column B, I have a list of timings for each track. Columns C-F contain a list of formats. Columns H1-M7 is a lookup table of timings, formats and pricing.

    So, as an example, a mp3 track that's 394 seconds long falls between the timings in row 3 of the lookup table, so the pricing for that track would be that contained in J3.

    Thanks for any help, and apologies if I've made this sound more complicated than it is!

    Use terms appropriate to a Google search. Poor thread titles, like Please Help, Urgent, Need Help, Formula Problem, Code Problem, and Need Advice will be addressed according to the OP's experience in the forum: If you have less than 10 posts, expect (and respond to) a request to change your thread title. If you have 10 or more posts, expect your post to be locked, so you can start a new thread with an appropriate title.

    To change a Title go to your first post, click EDIT then Go Advanced and change your title, if 2 days have passed ask a moderator to do it for you.

    Thanks for changing your title.
    Change D1:F1 to 16441 2496 24192 so they match other headers

    In C3 copied across and down

    =INDEX($J$2:$M$7, MATCH($B3,$H$2:$H$7), MATCH(C$1,$J$1:$M$1,0))
