Hi Bernard,
Thanks for the reply! I ended up using Index and Match instead of Vlookup since I needed to return the value of another cell. At the end of it all my formula looks like this: =IF(ISNA(MATCH( <item_searching_for , <column_looked_in , 0)),"",INDEX( <sheet_looked_in ,MATCH(<item_searching_for , <column_looked_in ,0),8)) In English: Find for item in a column of Sheet1 in a column of Sheet2 (Match function returns a row #). If it returns an error, then it's not found and return a blank. If it returns a row #, then give me cell contents at the intersection of that row # and a constant column. =IF(ISNA(MATCH('IS Inv'!J2,Temp!K:K,0)),"",INDEX(Temp! $1:$65536,MATCH('IS Inv'!J2,Temp!K:K,0),8)) This appears very complicated and I'm sure it can be broken down into an easier and shorter formula, but it works for me! I hope this helps anyone else who is doing a similar process. Thanks again Bernard, for pointing me in the right direction. Joel |
