Try this (still an array formula) but with 1000+ rows *expect* it to be
slow:

=IF(COLUMNS($B2:B2)<=COUNTIF(ToolNum,$A2),INDEX(To olOrd,SMALL(IF(ToolNum=$A2,ROW(ToolOrd)-MIN(ROW(ToolOrd))+1),COLUMNS($B2:B2))),"")

Copy across

Copy down until you get blanks. You'll have to copy to a number of cells
that is equal to the maximum number of times any lookup_value appears in
the
lookup_table. For example, in your sample data the lookup_value J123
appears
the max number of times, 2. So you need to copy the formula to at least 2
cells.

** array formulas need to be entered using the key combination of
CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER)

I have a spreadsheet with data in the following manner

Sheet 1
Col A. Col. B
Tool Number Tool Order #
J123 T008
J598 T258
J123 T568

On Sheet 2 in Column A, cell A2 I have the values I would like to
lookup in Sheet 1 Col A.
I need to return all values in Column B (Tool Order) on Sheet 2.

Anyone have any insight?

Thanks,

Thanks for the reply.

What would I need to do to get this where the different Tool Orders
could be displayed in different columns on the same row?
To clarify, my Sheet 2 has 1000+ rows of Tool Numbers to match to
sheet 1.

Thanks.
