Hi all.
I'm not entirely familiar with vlookup so please bear with me. I'm interested in searching approximately 35 worksheets in a workbook for a specific string. Once I find the right string, I want to search that page for 2 or 3 specific elements. Once I find all of those elements I want to compare the source number (which will be on the base worksheet) with the destination number (which will be one of the 35 worksheets I'm searching). I used "multi worksheet search" as my search criteria on the worksheet functions newsgroup and came up with a discussion from back in mid-August, the 16th through the 17th. It was a UDF for vlookup, or mvlookup. Harlan's was a volatile function. http://msdn.microsoft.com/newsgroups...xp=&sloc=en-us Harlan, and Toppers both responded to a person named Chris147's questions about how to something similar-- but of course, mine is just different enough. While I'm game to use a volatile function, I'd like to avoid it, as I've read from the msdn library that it will not automatically update as the destination sheets change. How can I perform the above described task set? Thank you for your time, and responses. Best. |
