Linking Worksheets and Lookup
Folks:
Much appreciate any help out of this situation. I have a worksheet that contains ten columns of data with 6,608 cells in each column. Each cell is a mixed value of number + text (example: 03510.mp3). In the same workbook I have another worksheet that contains columns that provide the key to those mixed values. One column is the mixed values (03510.mp3) and the adjacent column provides the definition in text (example: Ray Bradbury). What I want to do is have all 68,080 cells in the first worksheet look up the key in the second worksheet and extract the key definition text. I want the text definition added to my first worksheet (the one with 68,080 cells), so that I can identify each one of the values with its text definition. How do I do this? I know enough to get in trouble because I've gone down the road of trying to set up a formula that combines VLOOKUP with [WorkbookName] linking. However, it's not working, so I must be doing something wrong. Thanks for any illumination you can send my way! Stephen |
