Hi All,

As can be seen in the attached. I am trying to find a formula whic
finds the bonus amounts for three variables "NFM1", "FSIFPY" an
"METLP5". I would like a column for each. It will then use the SONO t
make sure each line has the exact amount of bonus.

As can be seen my way uses a vlookup which pulls through the first bonu
result which may not be the right one.

Any suggestions

Hi zildjian,

If I understand your problem, it is simply using VLOOKUP and wanting to return something from the second, third... lookup value in your look_up range.
Perhaps this will help, seems pretty clever to me but will take some study time.

Read the SITUATION section, under the SOLUTION section note the formula
=C5&COUNTIF($C$5:C5,C5).

And finally download the SAMPLE FILE.

It seems to offer a solution to you query.

Regards,
Howard
