The tables are essentially 3 columns by 4 rows and and simply stacked on top
on one another with a few emply cells in between. For example,

1st table (Account A, 2004) covers L15:N18
2nd table (Acount A, 2003) covers L32:N35
3rd table (Account A, 2002) covers L40:N43
....
77th table (Account G, 1994) covers L222:N225

The spaces (empty cells) between the tables are not uniform due to other
data on the spreadsheet. My goal is for the user to use a separate workbook
to input the Account name in A1, the year in B1 and have the appropriate
table appear in C1:E4

Thanks,

Kevin

Ellie,

How are your 77 tables arranged? Tell uswhether they are on separate sheets, single sheet, what the
cell locations are, etc.

It is likely that some combination of INDEX, MATCH, VLOOKUP, etc. will do the trick.

...
I have an extensive spreadsheet that contains tables of data for account
names by year. I would like to have a cell return data from the tables when
the account name and applicable year are typed into a worksheet. For
example, in workbook 1, separate 4 x 3 tables are set up for Accounts "A"
thru ""G", for years "1994" -"2004" (77 tables in all--7 accounts/11 years).
In workbook 2, when the user types in "A" in A1 and "2004" in A2, I would
like A3 to show the applicable table. If I have to reproduce the table cell
by cell that's OK. I just need help with reproducing the cell results from
the applicable table when the appropriate account/year are entered. I can't
nest IF's because I have too many conditions to test for.

Any ideas?
