The problem is not that complicated, but my abilities run a bit short without burning days. I always have to refresh my brain on these lookup formulas.

In sheet 1 this table needs to match the data in all 3 columns (A-C) to properly aurtopopulate the resulting value in Column D, "Weight." Column A-C are selected off of a picklist. So the lookup is searching a table in Sheet 2 that contains reference weights (Limits).

This is the data in Sheet 2 that holds the reference data I seek (Weight) corresponding to what I selected in Sheet1 Columns A-C). In real life, this is actually pulling this data from 5000-10000 rows of information and all kinds of iterations based on what I select in Columns A-C.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I suggest that you update your Account details (or click your user name at the top right of the forum) so helpers always know what Excel version(s) & platform(s) you are using as the best solution often varies by version. (Don’t forget to scroll down & ‘Save’)

I would, but I use 2-3 different versions. Depends on where I am working or at home.

Ok. But you would be advised to say which version you need it to work on in your op. That way it saves members having to ask. ;)
