Hi i need a formula that will return trust in Col b based on the info in Col E:G

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
I don't understand how you got your results... Are the results you are looking for (in yellow) shown correctly? Could you explain the logic for getting them? I thought it should be this:

In that case, this seems to work (pasted down):

#VALUE!
Entered with Ctrl+Shift+Enter. If entered correctly, Excel will surround with curly braces {}. Note: Do not try and enter these manually yourself

...I'm sure there must be a way to specifiy the whole 3-column search range without using a bunch of if()s, but can't seem to figure it out unfortunately.
