Index Match Multiple criteria

Currently I am using this formula:

=INDEX(STP_Data!F70:G78, MATCH(7443, STP_Data!$G$70:$G$78, 0), 1)

I need to have it also look for 7664 if it does not find 7443. I don't know how to approach including this into the formula. Do you guys have any idea? Thanks!

Your MATCH locks the lookup range with absolute columns and rows but the return range in INDEX does not. Shouldn't both be locked or both be unlocked? - user4039065

Give this a try and let me know if that solves it:

=IFERROR(INDEX(STP_Data!F70:G78, MATCH(7443, STP_Data!$G$70:$G$78, 0), 1), INDEX(STP_Data!F70:G78, MATCH(7664, STP_Data!$G$70:$G$78, 0), 1))

The IFERROR function can pass processing to an alternate if the first attempt fails. Like Ralph's solution above but uses IFERROR internally on the MATCH for a slightly shorter formula.

=INDEX(STP_Data!F70:F78, IFERROR(MATCH(7443, STP_Data!$G$70:$G$78, 0), MATCH(7664, STP_Data!$G$70:$G$78, 0)))

You don't need to specify the column in INDEX if you only reference column F.
