    Matching multiple values in 2 columns

    The Match function has 2 problems why I'm not using it: * It returns only the first hit and I need to skip hits once it has been successfully matched * It only works for 1 on 1 matching, where as that only represents about 40% of the total matches. The others are 1:x matching where 1 value in...

    Matching multiple values in 2 columns

    They are not unique values, so from my understanding the match function will only pick up the first one and I need to skip the value once it has been matched. Plus I need to know the cell it references, because if I loop through everything I need to give it another color based on the fact that...

    Yes, 1 value in column A matches a number of values in Column B. Just how many is not defined so in the easiest match it would simply match 1 value on Column B.

    Matching multiple values in 2 columns

    No, it's not always 4 values, it's a mixture of 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4 right up till 1:8 is the most I've seen. Around 80% is 1:1 matching and they should be identified and the color of the cell should change. All of that is no problem to program, but if I want to do 1:5 matching that basically...

    Matching multiple values in 2 columns

    Hello, the issue I'm having is that I have 2 columns on different worksheets that contain values that match to each other. The easy ones are the 1:1 matching, simply take the first value, compare that to the other one and if they match do whatever needs to be done. I loop through the X values...
