Hello excel gurus. I've got a spreadsheet of my bank transactions. If
the transaction description contains a keyword from another list, I'd like to assign it a category from the next column over. For example: Sheet1 has transaction descriptions like: POS DB WAL-MART # 9100 08/09 1030 HUNTERS CO THE OLIVE GARD KNOXVILLE TN POS DB TARGET T20 9100 08/04 4700 NEW HARVES Sheet2 has a list of keywords and categories like: WAL-MART Entertainment - Toys TARGET Entertainment - Toys OLIVE GARD Food - Dinner I was using vlookup but there are problems because many vendors include the transaction date in the description like the walmart and target items above. Any suggestions? |
