Lookup with date between multiple date ranges

Hi,

 

I'm running an email campaign analysis and need to lookup a date within a date range and then return the earliest value associated to it (otherwise there are multiple values and I get blank values)

 

Table 1

Email CampaignStart DateEnd Date
A14-Oct21-Oct
B15-Oct22-Oct
C26-Oct31-Oct

 

Table 2

 

Order Date
15-Oct
26-Oct

27-Oct

 

Desired Output

 

Order DateCampaign
15-OctA
16-OctA
27-OctC

 

This is because 15-Oct falls within two set out date ranges it takes the Campaign with the earlier Start Date.

 

I've tried using FIRSTNONBLANK but haven't got the desired result.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

If you unpovited your first table

Email Campaign Date
Astart date14-Oct
Aend date21-Oct
Bstart date26-Oct

etc.
Then you could just get the MIN() start date associated with the campaign
rather than having to do multiple passes seeing which start/end date groups your order date fit into

Thanks sir, so how would the lookup now work if I unpivot the table?

 

Which formula would I need to use to check if an order falls between the start and end date of a campaign?
