lookup
I use an excel spreadsheet to record numbered boxes that I have in different
locations for different customers. However one customer may have 10 different boxes for example. I am trying to use a lookup formula to extract the data for one certain customer. So say for example I put the customers name in a cell at the top of the page and link my lookup formula to that cell. The formula if I copy it down will lookup the first value only and not multiple values. EG Mr Smith has boxes 10 15 18 22 28 If I use the lookup formula it will always come out with the first value (eg box 10 if it is sorted in number order) but then I try to copy the data down and it will only give me the first value and no additionals. I hope this makes sense and I hope someone can help |

lookup
Why not just use autofilter on the customer col?
