VLookup a given critera and return a value without duplication
Hi all,
Just wonderind if someone can help me. I have a table of data and need to split it alphabetically a-i and j-z. I can do the if's and vlookup functions to get this info, however excel only finds the first matching data and returns that value. Can someone please help me come up with a way to make excel not look at cells already looked at? Thanks |

ExcelOz
I always use a helper column(s) for this by concatenating columns in the original data enough to make it unique. e.g A B C Jan 2006 1234 Jan 2006 2345 Then in D enter - =A1&B1&C1 then use a vlookup on this -- HTH Nick Hodge Microsoft MVP - Excel Southampton, England DTHIS www.nickhodge.co.uk "Excel_oz" wrote in message ...
