Sorry my excel is a bit rusty.

I am trying to do a manual merging with a vlookup on a table that contains several time series. Example

      A      B     C      D
1    Date1    V1  Date2    V2
2    Jun-2010 10 Jun-2010 100
3    Jul-2010 15 Aug-2010 120

I want to create a new table with

      A       B   C
1    Date     V1  V2
2    Jun-2010 10 100
3    Jul-2010 15 NA
4    Aug-2010 NA 100 

So each column refers to the same date cell but to different ranges in the reference table. I need to slide the range by two columns every time i move one column in the output table.

So after creating a column A in the output table containing all the possible dates (months), cell B2 would have

=vlookup($A2, Tab0!A2:B3, 2, 0) 

and column C2 would have

=vlookup($A2, Tab0!C2:D3, 2, 0), 

and so on.

To do this I am trying to write a vlookup function that takes a sliding range

I tried with R1C1 references, I considered INDEX + MATCH but I always get into some kind of problems.
