match number in a string of numbers
I have a column of 5 digit numbers, the first 3 digits are an item code and
the last 2 identify which customer it is going to. In an adjacent column I have the quantity of the product is being pulled by the customer. How do I lookup the last 2 digits, to identify the customer, and get the quantity that is being pulled without having to go through the sheet of hundreds of different orders? I am stuck. |

Let's say you order numbers are in column A and amounts are in column B. In
C1 enter =RIGHT(A1,2) and copy down. This will display your customer id. Next pull_down: Data Filter Autofilter This will permit you to select any particular customer id and view only that customer's rows of data. -- Gary''s Student "cmoore" wrote: I have a column of 5 digit numbers, the first 3 digits are an item code and the last 2 identify which customer it is going to.

You could combine the SUMPRODUCT and RIGHT functions. In C2 =SUMPRODUCT((RIGHT(A1:A500,2)*1=Your customer ID)*(B1:B500)) If you also need to incorporate the product number then: =SUMPRODUCT((RIGHT(A1:A500,2)*1=Your customer ID)*(LEFT(A1:A500,3)*1=Your Product number)*(B1:B500)) Does that help?

=SUMPRODUCT(--(RIGHT(A2:A10,2)="44"),--(B2:B10)) HTH "cmoore" wrote: I have a column of 5 digit numbers, the first 3 digits are an item code and the last 2 identify which customer it is going to.
