changeing words conditional?? please help
I have got a list of companys with abbreviated names with our purchase spend
with each company, I also have a master list of what the abbreviated names full alternative. When I do a report at the end of each month the list comes out with the abbreviated names but I want the full name. Is there a way to swap the abbreviated name with the appropriate full name? Maybe using a VB command. I am a novice at VB though so can anyone tell me exactly what to do if there is a code. Example company amount abreviated full A 1 A AYY B 2 B BEE D 4 C SEE F 9 D DEE E EEE F EFF company amount AYY 1 BEE 2 DEE 4 EFF 9 |

this can be acheived through VLOOKUP function.
You may replace the abreviated with full name using VLOOKUP.

Hi
Example: Sheet 1 Contains master data A AYY B BEE D DEE F EFF Sheet 2 Contains purchase data A 1 B 2 D 4 F 9 you may write the following vlookup formula in sheet2 to extract company's full name: =VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet1!$A$1:$B$4,2,FALSE) Regards rajesh "laandmc" wrote: can you give me an example as i'm struggling?
