Honestly, it's hard to believe a solution as easy as the one I'm asking for doesn't exist on the internet (spent 1h googling), but here it goes:

Consider this table:

Now, if we wanted to look up what a combination of R1 and C1 gives us, that would be a simple INDEX MATCH MATCH.

But what if we know R1, A2, and want the function to return C1, C3? How do you do this "reverse search"?

Please help :help:
 
Thanks a lot! It solved my problem. I already implemented the more complex one. I'll try this one later.

Have a great day!
