Index match question

I need some help with a formula as I haven't been able to get it to work. I have two different sheets, but what I want to do it match 2 cells and then return the value next to the second cell.

eg. find the first identifier in one column and then match that with the 2nd identifier in the same row and return the value of the cell next to this.

The column range is rather large.

Is this possible?

    Hi @DPickles

    This is possible but i would use INDEX COLLECT instead.

    Basically the formula would look like this.

    INDEX(COLLECT([Column you want the result from],[1st look up column],1st criteria,[2nd lookup column], 2nd criteria))

    Hope that helps

    Thanks
