Hi,

Thanks for any help.

I am familiar with Excel lookup functions, but I am looking for something more than VLOOKUP and LOOKUP.

Lets say I have column A and B on one tab. I have column C and D on another tab.

A B C D

I would like to search column A for any matches with column C. If there is a match, I would like to display the value in column D in column B.

I may have explained too much confusion. I dont want to look for a specific value like the LOOKUP functions do, I want to look for ANY matches between the two columns A and C. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
pmkieffe
 


Hi,

Why will VLOOKUP not work?

Please post some sample data that demonstrates your requirement.

Thanks for the reply. The objective changed on me. VLOOKUP is all I need now.

Thanks,

Check out the INDEX/MATCH combo as well for a dynamic range based on a row find.
