    INDEX/MATCH to return cells 4 & 5 places below my Match...

    Hi Guys!

    I have the following Formula which works great

    =INDEX(UKDATA,MATCH(E2,UKDATA,0)+5)

    This Looks for a MATCH of Cell E2 within the Range "UKDATA" and returns the 5th Cell below the Match.... Perfect


    Is there a way i can not only return the 5th Cell but also the 6th Cell?

    I have been trying;

    =INDEX(UKDATA,MATCH(E2,UKDATA,0)+5,+6)

    &

    =INDEX(UKDATA,MATCH(E3,UKDATA,0)+5),MATCHMATCH(E3,UKDATA,0)+6)

    But obviously this is not working for me...

    Any ideas?

    Like this maybe?

    =INDEX(UKDATA,MATCH(E2,UKDATA,0)+5)&" "&INDEX(UKDATA,MATCH(E2,UKDATA,0)+6)

    Ali! Thank you... This works perfectly!

    Ive been looking at Syntax all morning and going over Tutorials but sometimes if its a specific problem its best to ask.

    Thank you for time and effort, i have only started lerning Excel for the past few months and learning alot. Ill now go over how and why your formula works.

    Thanks again!

    This bit:

    &" "&

    simply concatenates the two formula values into the one cell and adds a space between them.

    Excellent! That will help me SO much Ali!

    The problem i have is that becuase i have been thrown in at the deep end im using some Complex Formulas without a complete understanding of basics and how to
    use them together.

    Im going to go over all the basics and hopefully i wont need to ask as much in the future... although this forum has been a real help and i have learnt ALOT from you guys!

    Thank you Ali
