I would like to be able to select a couple of items from list 1 and get whatever belongs to them in list 2 by chosing them in another column.
Example given below:

List1List2Chosen listOutput1Output2
ADogAADog
ACatCACat
BMouseCDog
CDogCMouse
CMouse
DCat
DMouse

I believe this can be done easily using a formula, but I can't seem to find the exact solution, as it keeps on dublicating the wrong output in Output2.
Thank you very much.

Remove leading & trailing spaces
Save as CSV to remove all leading and trailing spaces. It is faster than using TRIM().
