    Vlookup for two values instead of one

    Hello Experts,

    I use following Vlookup for one value in cell Q10.
    Is it possible to look for two different values and give out put in concatenate?

    VLOOKUP(Q10,$CA$2:$CB$6,2,FALSE)
    Thanks

    This is a way to look up two different values, but wont give a concatenate. I don't think vlookup alone is going to be able to do that. Maybe this could help you in your quest, or give someone else an idea:

    =INDEX($K$1:$K$100,MATCH(c874&g874,INDEX($A$1:$A$100&$G$1:$G$100,0),0))

    Perhaps
    VLOOKUP(Q10,$CA$2:$CB$6,2,FALSE) & VLOOKUP(Q11,$CA$2:$CB$6,2,FALSE)
    One test is worth a thousand opinions.

    Can you not use the 'IF' 'AND' formulas ?

    Small words but have big meanings

    I had thought about that application, but these generally return to either TRUE or FALSE based on conditions, not really concatenating two formulas

    Re: Vlookup for two values instead of one

    I'm sorry but I couldn't figure out how to create a new question so I'm replying to this since it was posted today. I really need help with excel. I'm not sure how to ask this question but essentially, I have two spreadsheets that reflect the same data (site ID) in column B. I know this because I did a vlookup....yes, some of this data doesn't ALL match (#N/A) but that's not a big deal. One of the speadsheets has additional information in column T that I would like copied to the other spreadsheet into column F. I'm thinking there is an IF command for this but I can't figure it out. I was shown how to do this before but didn't take notes and can't remember. I think one of the functions required me to count the cell column (i.e. T20 since it is the 20th letter of the alphabet). I want to take the information from column T if it equals zero ($0.00) and copy it to the other spreadsheet and associate it to the applicable Site ID.
    Can anyone help?
