Hey all, so in theory this seems doable, but I can't figure out. I have a range with some data from which I'd like to compare two columns in a range to two separate columns in another range and extract result based on the matches. I'm able to use a combination of Filter, ISNUMBER, and Xmatch to extract results when only looking at 1 column but can't do it with 2.


I'm looking at a range of data similar to this one:

Book1
ABC
1NameCityAmount
2JohnNYC100
3PayneMA200
4AustinUT300
5JohnNC400
6PayneNJ400
7BrandonCA200
8TyCO500
9BrandonNE100
10JohnWA100
11AutinID500
Sheet1


I'd like to compare that range to this list:

Book1
JK
1NameCity
2JohnNYC
3PayneMA
4AustinUT
5BrandonCA
6TyCO
7JohnWA
8AutinID
Sheet1


To get these results:
Book1
FGH
1NameCityAmount
2JohnNYC100
3PayneMA200
4AustinUT300
5BrandonCA200
6TyCO500
7JohnWA100
8AutinID500
Sheet1


Can this be accomplished with a single cell formula?

Double-click any number in a pivot table to create a new report showing all detail rows that make up that number
How about:

Excel Formula:
=XLOOKUP(J2:J8&K2:K8,A2:A11&B2:B11,C2:C11)

Hey! Thanks for the response, This Xlookup formula might work. Just have to test it out on the actual data set.

Curious to know if Xmatch could also handle something like this.

XMATCH alone doesn't return the value, only the index. You'd need to use it with something like INDEX.

Another option:

Excel Formula:
=INDEX(C2:C11,MAP(F2:F8,G2:G8,LAMBDA(a,b,XMATCH(1,(a=A2:A11)*(b=B2:B11)))),0)

Thank you both for the options given to me!

I ended up going the Xlookup route as this formula will be housed in a shared file and it will be easier for most users to understand & Troubleshoot.
