I have a large data base, but with three criteria, I believe I can locate a single cell value and return the value of that final cell. In the example below, I would want to find WC=61, Status=DT, and Hour=42, then return the value "Hydraulic". This is a Downtime Database for which I want to return the note after satisfying the three criteria. Here's a sample:
DT Chart | |||
WC | Status | Hour | Note |
53 | P | 3 | operator |
53 | DT | 5 | cups |
53 | DT | 4 | oil |
53 | DT | 2 | dirt |
53 | P | 7 | scratch |
53 | P | 1 | dent |
53 | P | 9 | ding |
61 | DT | 20 | Sensor |
61 | DT | 14 | Auto |
61 | DT | 42 | Hydraulic |
61 | DT | 35 | press |
61 | P | 8 | Hilo |
Can you help me with a formula that will extract the word "Hydraulic" from this table of info?

=INDEX(D3:D14,MATCH(1,(A3:A14=61)*(B3:B14="DT")*(C3:C14=42),0))
Maybe with this formula. Enter the formula with ctrl+shift+enter if you don't work with Office365 or 2021. An alternative could be VLOOKUP or - if you work with Office365 or 2021 - XLOOKUP. Of course you can make this formula dynamic e.g.
=INDEX(D3:D14,MATCH(1,(A3:A14=A20)*(B3:B14=B20)*(C3:C14=C20),0))
then you can enter the search criteria in cells A20, B20 and C20.
