Formula Help with Lookups?
I am trying to find a formula/Function that will help me do the following.
Table. Column A: List of Names Column B: Numerical Values Column C: List of Names Column D: Empty A function that will fill in Column D with a Numerical Value found in Column B where Column A = Column B. Example Data. Column A Row 1 Jimmy Row 2 Steve Column B Row 1 '4' Row 2 '8' Column C Row 1 Steve Row 2 Jimmy Column D Row 1 Empty Row 2 Empty After putting in this formula Column D should look like Row 1 '8' Row 2 '4' Thanks |

I think I almost have it.
Though my Data is a little different than my example. Sheet 1 Column A = Names Column F = Numerical Values Sheet 2 Column C = Names Column D = Empty Value(Where I want values entered from Column F to be populated) There are a total of 32 names and values. |

function. -- David Biddulph "Bombay" wrote in message ... Thanks for the speedy Response :) Okay what does the 2 represent in the formula?

The answer is, the 2 indicates you want to return the value from the 2nd
column of the table you're looking at. If your table was, say, F:I and you wanted the value in column H, you'd have ,3, instead.

Did you get it? If not the copy this in D1 of Sheet 2
=VLOOKUP(C1,Sheet1!A:F,6,FALSE) and copy down till the cell you want the values in "Bombay" wrote: I think I almost have it. Though my Data is a little different than my example. Sheet 1 Column A = Names Column F = Numerical Values Sheet 2 Column C = Names Column D = Empty Value(Where I want values entered from Column F to be populated) There are a total of 32 names and values. |
