look for a value in the left most column of a table, and then return a value
not in the same row but from given column and other row which will be just
above a blank row i.e., in the above example given the lookup value as A1 i
should be able to extract values in G6, H6, I6 and given the lookup value as
A8 i should be able to extract values in G12, H12, I12. in the other sheet
where i have extracted these the view should be something like this

1 543 2 1086
2 304 20 6080

That's gotta be the most incoherent post ever!

If I can decipher more or less what you want, I suggest playing around
with a combination of VLOOKUP, OFFSET, INDIRECT, and MATCH. It
will take some time to get exactly what you want, but those functions
will let you select darn near any relatively-place cell you want.
