Hi,
You can use a builtin function in excel called VLOOKUP to perform this. Step1: Go to the sheet where you want the result to be looked up into. Step2: click on the empty cell adjacent to a Model number who's details you want to lookup Step3: type "=VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet2!A:B,2,0)" Whe A2=Cell of "Model No" in Sheet 1 who's data you want to lookup Sheet2!A:B = Selection of lookup data range .i.e. if you want to lookup the third column information, you need to have Sheet2!A:C. 2 = If you want the result from column 2 .i.e in your case its "price" 0= I am not sure what this is for, but leave it to 0 :) Try this and let me know if this works! PS: You will get a better explanation on how VLOOKUP works from the Help menu :) Regards, James "Gmata" wrote: Hello, I have to sheets with information Both have Model Numbers and some more information I need to match some information using model number, how can i create a formula to match for example: if in sheet 1 column A is model number and Sheet 2 Column A i have Model Number Column B Price i need to match the price to the Model Number in column A Thanks |
