lookup row and column

[n00batW0rk]

I have a table with dates going across,

and down column A, I have a set of names.


I have a similar table that i need to populate with the above data but
there are some additional dates as well as names. I cannot do a lookup
because if i lookup the name, it will return the wrong data because of
the addional dates, and vice versa with the lookup by date. If anyone
can help, Thank you.

Are you wanting to do a double-lookup? If so, this formula looks up A1(row)
and B1 (column) in an array named 'Table':
=INDEX(Table,MATCH(A1,INDEX(Table,,1),0),MATCH(B1,INDEX(Table,1,),0))
