Vlookup query
Hi Biff - sorry your #1 Pain again!!
all is working well (+ I've made some changes based on other tips from you
on previous notes) however there are still issues with duplicates.
Currently I have as an example
=IF(COUNTIF(Tasks!B$2:B$576,A59),INDEX(Tasks!A$2:A $576,MATCH(A59,Tasks!B$2:B$576,0)),"-")
On the tasks sheet row 59,60 and 61 column B are all the same which is the
same as the number listed on the current sheet in A59, A60 & A61 - but the
data I'm collecting from the tasks sheet in columns D, F & J (same rows)
change on each row which the formula isnt picking up
The formula gives the correct answer for A59 but when I drag down to use for
A60 and A61 it only provides the row 59 answers again.
Gosh I hope this makes it clearer Biff its the only way I can think to
clarify for you.
Any assistance as always appreciated

with a comma between
To do it that way would require a VBA UDF.
How about returning each result to its own cell? That's fairly simple. For
example:
Horizontally:
....A1........B1........C1
result1...result2...result3
Vertically:
A1 = result1
A2 = result2
A3 = result3

Sorry Biff I do have one more question - The below works perfectly -
however
I have now realised that there may be multiple matches, is there a way to
show all of these say with a comma between or am I asking for too much??

Thanks as always

Your row ranges aren't the same size, 576 versus 511 ?
Try this...
=IF(COUNTIF(Sheet2!B$2:B$511,B2),INDEX(Sheet2!A$2: A$511,MATCH(B2,Sheet2!B$2:B$511,0)),0)

Hello Everyone
I have two worksheets if the number in sheet 1 cell B2 is in column B
of
sheet 2 (say B36) I want the number in A36 to be copied to sheet one.

wrong

=IF(COUNTIF(sheet 2!$B$2:$B$576,B2),VLOOKUP(B2,sheet
2!$A$2:$K$511,1,0),0)
