Look up information on one worksheet and transfer to another
Hi In column A in worksheet 1 I have a list of numbers. Column B is blank. In column A of worksheet 2 I have a list of numbers , with further reference numbers next to each in column B. What I need to do is to have a routine which will compare each number n column A in worksheet 2 to column A in worksheet 1. It needs to run for as many numbers as there are , and stop at the last one in the column. Where there is a match , the number in column B in worksheet 2 needs to be transferred to column B worksheet 1 in the same row as the matching number. Where there is no match , the cell remains blank example Ws 1 A B 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Ws 2 A B 1 3457 3 8566 5 2332 7 3346 After match Ws 1 A B 1 3457 2 3 8566 4 5 2332 6 7 3346 8 I hope this seems clear. Any help appreciated. |

You could use Vlookup for this task:
in WS1 cell B1 put following formula: =vlookup(A1,Ws2!$A$1:$B$2000,2,false) and then drag that formula down for all rows you need. if you want to check for errors you could use this formula: =if(iserror(vlookup(A1,Ws2!$A$1:$B$2000,2,false)), "",vlookup(A1,Ws2!$A $1:$A$2000,1,false)) hth Carlo On Jan 30, 1:53*pm, Colin Hayes wrote: Hi In column A in worksheet 1 I have a list of numbers.
