Use the Offset function to establish your range like this (I assume you would
have some kind of header in Row 1


Sheet 1
Row 1 ColumnA ColumnB ColumnsC ColumnD ColumnE
Row 2 Product X Vendor1 Vendor2 Vendor3 Vendor4

Sheet 2
Row 1 ColumnA ColumnB
Row 2 Product Vendor


OFFSET(Sheet1!A1,match(A2,Sheet1!$A$2:$A$10,0),1,1 ,4)
This establishes a range starting match(A2,Sheet1!$A$2:$A$10,0) rows from A1
and 1 column over. The range is 1 row in height and 4 columns in width)
then use this for your match

Match(B2,OFFSET(Sheet1!A1,match(A2,Sheet1!$A$2:$A$ 10,0),1,1,4),0)

Finally set your Qualifying conditions with an IF

=IF(Match(B2,OFFSET(Sheet1!A1,match(A2,Sheet1!$A$2 :$A$10,0),1,1,4),0)2,"Non
Qualifying","Qualifying")

This formula goes in C2 on Sheet 2

Hello -

I have 2 tabs of data.
The first tab has info by product and its qualifying vendors and
non-qualifying vendors (the vendors are in seperate columns)
ColumnA ColumnB ColumnsC ColumnD ColumnE
Product X Vendor1 Vendor2 Vendor3 Vendor4

Column A will always be unique
Columns B and C are qualifying vendors and Column D and E are non-qualifying.

In the second tab I have the following:
ColumnA ColumnB
Product Vendor

What formula do I use to tell me if the vendor is Qualifying (Q) or
Non-Qualifying (N) or blank if the vendor is not included in the list.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance.
