Using a lookup to return multiple values in one cell??
This could be done using formulas, but, with the configuration you posted,
can you dedicate the number of columns to the right to display all possible
returns, one column for each possibility?
You're talking about 10 to 12 to 15 or so ... aren't you?
Post back if you're interested.

Ok, basically I want to do a lookup to return some figures... I know
all the VLOOKUP, etc... trouble is I don't just want to return one
figure. It may be 1 figure but then it may be about 9/10 as well.
I've got a list of order numbers and a list of orders that need an
invoice date next to them. So I've done a bog standard vlookup and it
only returns one figure where as there might be 10 invoices related to
1 order... make any sense :?
(Table 1)
Order Number................... Invoice Date
10010001....................... 22/11/05
10010001....................... 14/10/05
10010002....................... 25/09/05
10010002....................... 21/12/05
10010002....................... 23/11/05
10010002....................... 05/10/05
10010002....................... 15/11/05
10010003....................... 20/12/05
etc...
(Table 2)
Order Number.... Supplier.... Invoice Date
10010001........ xxxxxxxx.... *lookup from table 1*
10010002........ xxxxxxxx.... *lookup from table 1*
10010003........ xxxxxxxx.... *lookup from table 1*
Any ideas??
