    Vlookup and concatenate

    Hello All,
    I hope this message finds you all well.
    I must admit I'm in a little over my head here. What I trying to accomplish is to combine a Vlookup and concatenate function. On sheet 1 I have two inputs - company code and credit account. These two values need to be used as my lookup_value in my Vlookup function. On sheet 2, I need to find the rating (column "I").
    Could someone help me here?

    I know I could add a column to Sheet 2 and concatenate the credit account and company code and then use Vlookup. However, I would like to not have to do that. All help and suggestions are welcomed!

    Thanks!

    Re: Vlookup and concatenate

    this will work =INDEX(Sheet2!I2:I13,MATCH(Sheet1!C2&Sheet1!C3,Sheet2!J2:J13,0)) if you put this in cell J2 of sheet2 and drag down... =A2&B2 (helper column)

    had to change the sheet2 formula slightly from I1:I13 to I2:I13

    May be:

    =LOOKUP(2,(Sheet2!A:A=Sheet1!C2)/(Sheet2!B:B=Sheet1!C3),Sheet2!I:I)

    or may be
    copy paste below then hold control and shift together and then hit enter to make it array formula
    =INDEX(Sheet2!$I$2:$I$13,MATCH(Sheet1!C2&Sheet1!C3,Sheet2!A2:A13&Sheet2!$B$2:$B$13,0))
