5 7 9 tony Hx 8


if i want 3 under column A in table 1 to match 3 under colum position table

Default data matchin

Hi,
where do you want the results in table 1, I am assuming that you enter the
number you want to bring the information in A1 in sheet 1, in b1 you want to
pull the data from sheet2
=sumproduct(--(A1=Sheet2!$C$1:$C$50),sheet2!$B$1:$B$50)

if this helps please click yes, thanks
