Extracting data from Excel
 

In column A2 I have this number 91-109002-000-A. In column G, I have several
109002 -000. I want to be able to compare A2 to all of G and if the
number is similar (what I call the base number), then I need for the formula
to look at column H and extract that information. So there may be more than
one answer for my extraction. Example:
(A) (G) (H)
Extraction would read
(2) 91-109002-000-A 109002-000 350574 350574,350575,643225
109002-000 350575
109002-000 643225

Sub getpartialdata()
mn = "109002-000"
For Each c In Range("g1:g3")
If InStr(c, mn) Then
ms = ms & " " & c.Offset(, 1)
End If
Next
MsgBox ms
'range("i2")=ms'??
End Sub

Don, Thanks for your quick reply. Column A2 will have many more numbers. I
was hoping to use a formula.
