    #N/A Error with INDEX MATCH formula

    Greetings,

    I want to derive the value of CFmin in the attached sheet using INDEX MATCH formula but it is showing #N/A Error.

    Kindly advise how to correct it.

    Re: #N/A Error with INDEX MATCH formula

    =INDEX($G6:$N$13,MATCH($C$3,$G$7:$G$13,1)-1+MATCH($C$4,$I$6:$N$6,1)*MATCH(RIGHT($I4,1),0))

    What is the final bit of the formula meant to calculate? It is causing the error (RIGHT($I4,1) = 'm' - is this correct?

    Hi,

    =INDEX(G7:N13,MATCH(C3,$G$7:$G$13)+1,MATCH(C4,I6:N6)+2)
    Note. Try and avoid merging cells as you have done G:H. Merged cells just cause too many problems and most of us avoid them like the plague. Use 'Center across selection' in the cells formatting area instead.

    I wasn't soliciting help; rather posing a question to the original poster...

    Re: #N/A Error with INDEX MATCH formula

    You need to remove those merged cells, then you can use this formula:

    =INDEX($I$7:$K$13,MATCH($C$3,$G$7:$G$13,1)+1,MATCH($C$4,$I$6:$K$6,1))

    Hope this helps.

    Pete

    EDIT: was not able to attach my adjusted file.

    Re: #N/A Error with INDEX MATCH formula

    If 30 must obtain for the given parameters, try rather:

    =INDEX($I$7:$N$13,MATCH(C3,$G$7:$G$13,1)+(LOOKUP(C3,$G$7:$G$13) < C3),MATCH(C4,$I$6:$N$6,1))

    which will also produce a correct value when Reference Dia. dB = 26.
