Hi

I'm trying to work out some code so I can select a value in a table based on two factors. The X & Y axis are numeric and range "up to" and I can reference both in cell in a form, and then calculate the appropriate factor.

1000​
5000​
10000​
10​
0.0%​
0.5%​
0.8%​
20​
0.5%​
0.8%​
1.0%​
30​
0.8%​
1.0%​
1.5%​

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
 

Excel Facts

Select all contiguous cells
Pressing Ctrl+* (asterisk) will select the "current region" - all contiguous cells in all directions.
will the values be exact match to the x & y
or nearest and if nearest do you take the higher or lower value

grid lookup

=INDEX(B2:D4,MATCH(H2,A2:A4,0),MATCH(H3,B1:D1,0))

Book14
ABCDEFGHIJ
1100050001000
2100.0%0.5%0.8%Y200.8%
3200.5%0.8%1.0%X5000
4300.8%1.0%1.5%
Sheet1
Cell Formulas
RangeFormula
J2J2=INDEX(B2:D4,MATCH(H2,A2:A4,0),MATCH(H3,B1:D1,0))


this explains a grid look where there is an exact match

mayneed to change the 0 to a 1 or -1 in the match parts
Or use a sumproduct
depends on answers as to nearest ,

ok,
as i said - this is for an exact value match
not a close match

so if you had
Y = 22
X = 1129

what result would you expect and why
ALSO

What version of excel are you using - would be worth updating your profile to show version as solutions will be dependant on what version you have and therefore what functions available.
Excel Versions are: 2003/2007/2010/2013/2016/2019/2021/2024 (due April24) /365 subscription , also rather than show more than 1 version . if you have them , show which version you will be using the solution for.
An awful lot of new functions have now been added to the newer versions
