    Lookup on Duplicate Values

    Hi All

    I'm looking to return a lookup value based on a set of data that has duplicate values. Attached is the a file that contains the issue I am facing. The end result that I am looking for is from Cell I3 to L3. What I need is a formula that looks up at Cell C2 within the data range of E3:F19 and the results should be in I3 to L3. Cell C2 has to be in months. Appreciate your assistance on this.

    Best regards

    Re: Lookup on Duplicate Values

    In I3:

    =IFERROR(INDEX($F$3:$F$19,MATCH(1,($E$3:$E$19=I$2)*($F$3:$F$19=$C$2),0)),"")

    ... confirmed by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to activate the array, not just ENTER. You will know the array is active when you see curly braces { } appear around your formula. If you do not CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER you will get an error or a clearly incorrect answer. Once entered, drag copy across.
