    This has the potential to get very messy. Already you have 2 x 10 combinations of first and second lists. It can be done, but it will be messy...

    However, there may be a workaround. How many rows (MAXIMUM) will you need to apply the DV to?

    VBA is the only way to go for a problem like yours... Check out Leo's approach. It's not my understanding of what you want, but it's a good start.
