Vlookup/match?
Can anyone help me out with creating a formula that does the
following. sheet1 has a 'JobCode' in column C sheet 2 has a 'JobCode' in column A with an associating 'Level' in column E. I need to match the JobCode from sheet1 and sheet2 and pull the associating 'Level' in column E on sheet2 back to sheet1 in column G. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Chris |

Assume data in row2 down
In Sheet1, In G2: =INDEX(Sheet2!E:E,MATCH(C2,Sheet2!A:A,0)) Copy down -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 Downloads:17,500, Files:358, Subscribers:55 xdemechanik --- "Chris" wrote in message ...

It gave me a NA Then I suspect that your JobCode data is inconsistent Here's some options to the earlier to improve robustness in matching If its text, try in G2: =INDEX(Sheet2!E:E,MATCH(TRIM(C2),Sheet2!A:A,0)) TRIM removes extraneous spaces If its numbers, try one of these options in G2: =INDEX(Sheet2!E:E,MATCH(C2+0,Sheet2!A:A,0)) +0 converts text numbers to real numbers =INDEX(Sheet2!E:E,MATCH(C2&"",Sheet2!A:A,0)) &"" converts real numbers to text numbers =INDEX(Sheet2!E:E,MATCH(Text(C2,"000000"),Sheet2!A :A,0)) TEXT converts real numbers to text numbers, padding leading zeros to 6 digits (adapt to suit) -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 Downloads:17,500, Files:358, Subscribers:55 xdemechanik --- |

For example, sheet1 has a 'JobCode' in column C and 'DepartmentID' in column E sheet 2 has a 'JobCode' in column A and 'DepartmentID' in column D with an associating 'Level' in column E. What if I wanted to match column C and column E in sheet one to column A and column D in sheet2 before returning the associating 'Level' in column E on sheet2? |

Chris
Pl post as new threads for new queries in future In Sheet1, Put this into G2's formula bar, then array-enter, ie press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to confirm the formula (instead of just pressing ENTER): =INDEX(Sheet2!E$2:E$100,MATCH(1,(C2=Sheet2!A$2:A$1 00)*(E2=Sheet2!D$2:D$100),0)) Copy G2 down. Adapt the ranges to suit. All ranges must be identically sized, and entire col references cannot be used. -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 Downloads:17,500 Files:358 Subscribers:55 xdemechanik --- "Chris" wrote What would I need to change in the formula if I wanted to match 2 columns instead of one.
