Combine Information
I have two worksheets with a common column. I want to combine the
information, however the columns aren't the same and I only need data from one column. For example: A B C Date Patient Virus 1/1/1900 00-100-1234 No Virus 1/2/1901 01-100-1245 RSV In another worsheet I have the same information as in Column B and additional information in column D. I want to match the patient information from column B in both worksheets and add the information from column D into the first worksheet to create one worksheet with one row of data. Any thoughts? Thanks. |

Combine Information
One way is to use a simple INDEX/MATCH ..
In Sheet1, Put in D2: =IF(ISNA(MATCH(B2,Sheet2!B:B,0)),"",INDEX(Sheet2!D :D,MATCH(B2,Sheet2!B:B,0))) Copy down -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 xdemechanik --- "Lost in Microbiology" wrote: I have two worksheets with a common column.
