vlookup help

[KC]

I'm using the following formula in order to look up a name in another
spreadsheet that corresponds to what's in B76, and its working fine.

=VLOOKUP(B76,'[2010 GR.xls]Hiring'!$E$4:$F$400,2,FALSE)

However, I need a new formula to do something similar, but its not working.
I need to look up the whats in B76 then go to the 2010 GR.xls file in the
Hiring tab and match it with whats in column E (like above), then return the
position title that's in column C.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

=INDEX('[2010 GR.xls]Hiring'!$C$4:$C$7,MATCH(B76,'[2010
GR.xls]Hiring'!$E$4:$E$12,0))

change the 12 to 400 - I experimented with a small table
best wishes

I believe this is what you are looking for:

=INDEX('[2010 GR.xls]Hiring'!$C$4:$C$400,MATCH('[2010
GR.xls]Hiring'!$E$4:$E$400,0))

Hi Luke, the formula didn't work. it needs to 1st look at cell B76 (on the
current tab), then go to the other file 2010 GR.xls and look in column E for
the match, then return the contents of column C in the same row.

I believe this is what you are looking for:

=INDEX('[2010 GR.xls]Hiring'!$C$4:$C$400,MATCH('[2010
GR.xls]Hiring'!$E$4:$E$400,0))
