Not sure if my title is exactly what I'm looking for but what I'm trying to do is lookup a value based on two criteria. The best way to show you what I'm looking to do is to just show a sample of what I'm trying to do. Whatever is in cell A2 (District 3), I want the formulas in column B to lookup in all of column A, the corresponding values that match whatever district and their values in all of column B. If there is nothing to match it just needs to be 0... I'm able to do that part with an ISNA and VLOOKUP formula but I am unsure how to also match it to the district. Any help would be appreciated.

Excel Facts

Last used cell?
Press Ctrl+End to move to what Excel thinks is the last used cell.
This works for me on my test sheet.

Name each district, I used District_1, District_2 etc. where the named range is both column A and B data for each district.
Cell A2 is a drop down with all the District_X names.

Thank you for that. I see how that works as I was able to replicate what you did. Unfortunately it really only works on this sample size... the original sheet has a lot more items and has about 10,000 rows of data so I wouldn't be able to do named ranges for each of them. Know of another way to do it possibly? Thank you again for your suggestion!

Is the number of line items in each district the same? If so, then try:

AB
District 3
Retail
Discounts
Food Costs
Paper Costs
Linen Costs
Uniform Exp
Holiday Pay
Local Tax

The 8 refers to the number of line items in each section. If they can vary, it becomes much trickier to figure out where each section ends, but it can be done.
