vlookup return value from 2 columns
Hi All,
Vlookup in it's basic usage is no problem for me but now I need to lookup a matching value in column 2 & return the values of columns 3 & 4. Preferably in the format of xxxxxxx & yyyyyyyy since columns 3 & 4 are names. If you could help with any method that is simple & works would be great. Cheers Hugh

vlookup return value from 2 columns
Just concatenate 2 lookups together. Something like this (all on one line):
=VLOOKUP(A10,B1  5,2,0)&" & "&VLOOKUP(A10,B1 5,3,0)Or, you can add another column to your table with the names already concatenated: =C1&" & "D1 Then do the lookup on this new column: =VLOOKUP(A10,B1:E5,4,0) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Hugh self taught" wrote in message ...
