Lookup Data in Another Table
I need to instruct MS Excel to look in the cells in column D of Table One,
see if those cells match data in column H of Table Two, and if it does to insert the descriptions from column I of Table Two in column E of Table One. In other words, I am matching codes between two spreadsheets, finding the description of the codes and placing them in a new column in the original table. 'Suggestion, please. Sincerely, DOUG ECKERT |
Lookup Data in Another Table
You don't say what row your data starts on - I'll assume row 2, so put
this in E2: =IF(ISNA(MATCH(D2,H:H,0)),"",VLOOKUP(D2,H:I,2,0)) Copy down for as many entries as you have in column D. Hope this helps.
