(Index(Collect
I am using the (Index(Collect formula as well and it is telling me that my formula is "#UNPARSEABLE". Could someone help me with this? I tried using the following format "INDEX(COLLECT({Column to return}, {Column 1 with value to match}, "Value 1", {Column 2 with value to match}, "Value 2")", but it unfortunately stopped working. I can't seem to figure out why.

#UNPARSEABLE almost always indicates a syntax issue, usually something like a missing parentheses. You always have to have an end parentheses to close off each function in a formula. Then there's the missing row_index parameter in the INDEX portion of the formula. Try adding a comma, space, 1, end parentheses at the end like below and see what happens.
=INDEX(COLLECT({Column to return}, {Column 1 with value to match}, "Value 1", {Column 2 with value to match}, "Value 2"), 1)
