Vlookup requires exact lookup value, is it possible to do lookup if that
value is available within a particular cell? I want to do vlookup the value wherein lookup_value is available in particular cell but it is alongwith some other words i.e. i would like to search for a code "PLLU" but in a table array value is available as "PLLUPINT/PLLLINFE". Since the value is available as word contains, vlookup value is not possible. In other words i would like to search for a word which contains that value. How can i do such a vlookup either through excel or macro. Please suggest. Thank you. |
