Hi,

I wonder if anyone would be able to help with with the below

I have some spread sheets, the first contains all our customers and their contact details "name" "email" and "phone", the others are split into specific contracts and contain "name" (and other data)

What i want to do is somehow match and move the details from the 1st to the others. So check if the "name" appears in both sheets and if so copy the associated "email" and "Phone" data from the contact details to the specific contract spreadsheet. I hope that makes sense, please ask if not.

As there are over 1500 records this will be a long task to do by hand, so any advise would be really great.

I know using vlookup will show me matches but am at a loss on how to expand on this

Thank you for your time

Regards

Very sorry if I have not explained well, please just ask and I will clarify

The Roman numeral for 40 is XL. Bill "MrExcel" Jelen's 40th book was called MrExcel XL.
care123,

1. What version of Excel and Windows are you using?

2. Are you using a PC or a Mac?

Can you post screenshots of the actual raw data worksheets?

And, can you post a screenshot of the worksheet results (manually formatted by you) that you are looking for?

care123,

You are posting a picture/graphic. This means that if this was a problem where one needed to use your data, anyone trying to help you would have to enter the data manually. That makes no sense.

Hi,

Yes sorry I know it is a picture. The orginal contains over 1500 entries and as it is customer data, I cannot post or change it all.

Hi
. Can you not simply make - up some tables for us looking like the original with made -. up Customer details in it, and similarly give us a table showing what your final table should look like. The final table results should be based on your made – up data. That will assist us in checking our results.

care123,

One last try.

The original contains over 1500 entries and as it is customer data, I cannot post or change it all.

How about creating a sample workbook that contains:

1. the original worksheet with its correct worksheet name, with all its correct titles, and, some sample data, in the correct locations for "name", "email", and, "phone".

2. At least two of the other worksheets with all their correct titles in the correct locations, and, at least the "name" column complete similar to the original worksheet (above), and, with their correct worksheet names.


After you do the above, then:

You can upload your workbook to Box Net,

mark the workbook for sharing

and provide us with a link to your workbook.

apologies for the delay and thank you for your help

I have uploaded 2 files.

The first is where I want the data to come from (datasheet). I need to check if the name (both first and surname) is in the 2nd sheet (BUSINESS VISA) and if so copy the phone and email, so the result will look like what is shown in the 2nd columns in BUSINESS VISA

Does that make sense to anyone?

Thank you again
