I'm having a hard time doing a lookup to obtain a multiplier based on multiple matching column values. Here is my example.

I have three values in columns G8 through I8. I have a table of values, T8:V42. I need to take the values in G8 thorough I8 and find the correct matching row in T8:V42. Once I know what row matches, I need to take the value in the W column of that matching row and multiply it by J8. My formula will be created in cell L8.

Any help would be appreciated.

How to change case of text in Excel?
Use =UPPER() for upper case, =LOWER() for lower case, and =PROPER() for proper case. PROPER won't capitalize second c in Mccartney

This needs some elaboration. What do you mean by matching G8:I8 against T8:V42 exactly?

In the example below, I'm trying to write a formula for cell L8. I need to compare columns G8 through I8 to the T through V columns in the set of values off to the right. When I find the hit (row 17 in this example), I retrieve W17 and multiply it by J8. L8 should equal $625 in this case. Thank you for your time. (If I could attach the file or a screen shot, it would probably be better.

I just went with a more simple process of manually assigning the multiplier column to be used as I enter rows into the cells. At the end of the day, this is a spreadsheet to track my baseball card collection and automatically update value. The actual piece that I was trying to figure out to match up the columns is something that I can do manually in about 10 seconds and I only add a new card to my collection about once a month.
