    Vlookup 2 sheets finding data that matches both

    How do you return value that matches both a cell in sheet1 and a cell in sheet 2.

    Sheet1
    A B. C
    1 Tim. 51 May
    2 bob. 63 June
    3 max 26. April

    Sheet 2
    A B. C
    26. April. Max
    51. May. Tim
    63. Bob. June

    Imagine the cells for column C in sheet 2 are blank. What would be the formula to return the correct result baring in mind that the data may not be sorted the same on sheet 2?

    Re: Vlookup 2 sheets finding data that matches both

    The description is a little muddy--I think you want to fill in column C of Sheet2 by finding a match for April and Max on sheet1, for example.

    This can be done with an array formula. Enter this formula in Sheet2, C3:

    Then instead of pressing ENTER, press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER. If you do it right, you will see the formula enclosed in {}.
