Multiple-column based lookups in Excel

        A     B    C
    1 PROD1 TYPE1 VAL1
    2 PROD2 TYPE1 VAL2
    3 PROD1 TYPE2 VAL3
    4 PROD2 TYPE3 VAL2

In an empty cell I want to get the value in C column for the Prod Type= Prod2 and type = type3.

I will appreciate any kind of help.

Have a look at using the DGET Excel function.

Set

Then your provided data in A2:C5

Then

And lastly, in H3:

=DGET(A1:C5,"Val",H1:I2)

That should get the value for you.

=SUMPRODUCT(($A$1:$A$4="PROD2")*($B$1:$B$4="TYPE3")*($C$1:$C$4))

This assumes that column C values are actually numbers and not text.

An improvement on the solution by Dick Kusleika for the case when the output column does not contain numbers is

=INDEX(C:C,SUMPRODUCT((A:A="PROD2")*(B:B="TYPE3")*ROW(C:C)),0)

Taken from here.
