Hi there,
This is my first post of question:
I am trying to use a Vlookup formula with a 3 possible col_index_num depending on the value of another column in a spreadsheet. Attached is my workbook with sheet 1 & 2. I am trying to put the vlookup in column D with the 3 possible col_index_num in sheet 2 - Column C, D or E.
Please help
=VLOOKUP(B2,Sheet2!$A$2:$E$8,(Sheet1!C2="MAXIM")*3+(Sheet1!C2="DARIOS")*4+(Sheet1!C2="CELESTICA")*5,FALSE)
see attached

or you can use index/match
=INDEX(Sheet2!$C$2:$E$8,MATCH(B2,Sheet2!$A$2:$A$8,0),MATCH(C2,Sheet2!$C$1:$E$1,0))

if at first you don't succeed try doing it the way your wife told you to
Cell D2: =INDEX(Sheet2!$B$2:$E$8, MATCH($B2,Sheet2!$A$2:$A$8,0),MATCH($C2,Sheet2!$B$1:$E$1,0)) ... and drag down
