Try an INDEX/COLLECT like so:

=INDEX(COLLECT({Area Column}, {Plot Column}, @cell = Plot@row, {Valve Number Column}, @cell = [Valve Number]@row), 1)

please could you explain each part of this syntex

Paul Newcome

You COLLECT all of the rows from the first range where the range/criteria sets match then you INDEX the first one from the array.

The previously suggested formula should be pulling in exactly what you are wanting.
