Excel matching between combination of columns
I have the following data on an excel :
Sheet1 :
id effectiveDate rateValue CrTime
20 20130627 0.08 6/28/2013 23:05
20 20130626 0.1 6/28/2013 6:23
Sheet 2:
id effectiveDate rateValue CrTime
20 20130630 0.08 6/30/2013 18:14
20 20130628 0.08 6/28/2013 9:38
20 20130627 0.1 6/27/2013 18:14
I want another 1 column on Sheet 2 which should do the following match - If there is a corresponding match in Sheet 1 for the combo of id+effectiveDate, then output the value.
So expected output on Sheet 2
id effectiveDate rateValue CrTime Sheet1RateValue
20 20130630 0.08 6/30/2013 18:14 Absent
20 20130628 0.08 6/28/2013 9:38 0.08
20 20130627 0.1 6/27/2013 18:14 0.1

If there concatenate of id+effective date is unique, SUMIFS() can be used instead of VLOOKUP() here since we're dealing with numbers.
I assume that the data are in columns A through D and starting at row 2.
=IF(SUMIFS(Sheet1!C:C,Sheet1!A:A,'Sheet 2'!A2,Sheet1!B:B,'Sheet 2'!B2)=0,
"Absent",
SUMIFS(Sheet1!C:C,Sheet1!A:A,'Sheet 2'!A2,Sheet1!B:B,'Sheet 2'!B2)
)
Note that you named the second sheet Sheet 2 there instead of the default Sheet2 (the spaces does make a difference. Change the reference as necessary.
So, this formula will sum the rates for a given id+effective date. If there are two similar combination of id+effective date in Sheet1, then the formula will sum the two rates. That's the difference you'll get from a vlookup.
Otherwise, if you absolutely need vlookup, I would suggest creating two helper column, one for the reference and one for the lookup, the first in Sheet 2 and the second in Sheet1.
the prob. is if we have a ID of 1 and an effectiveDate 20130630 and we have an ID 2 and effectiveDate 20130629, aren't they gonna give the same, incorrect results?

@anirbanchowdhury SUMIFS() is adding the rates of cells with the same ID and same effective date. In this case, ID1and EffDate20130630will give a different result than ID2and EffDate20130629.
