Hi,

I have this spreadsheet imported from a software that keeps track of production. It looks like this:

Welcome to MrExcel.

Insert a row above your data and enter some headings. Then create a pivot table with each of the fields in the row area and Count of one of the fields in the data area. Remove the subtotals from each of the fields, then click the dropdown for the name field and uncheck No Employee N.

Result:

I would like to find the employee names of each machine and shifts. How can I find Federal # 1 2nd shift employee? and/or Federal #2 1st shift emloyee?Problem is there is No Employee N. I dont want that. Vlookup does not work. What formula can I use? Thanks,
Do you mean that the corresonding cell houses the string "No Employee N." or is empty?

On www.excelguide.eu you'll find a formula called MLOOKUP(). Excel, Lookup, Multiple Values

Use the following setup of the formula :

=MLOOKUP(C1:C10;A1:A10="Federal # 1";B1:B10="2nd";C1:C10<>"No Employee N.")

.. where your data is in cells A1:C10.

Thanks for the help. I pasted the code into a module and ended the mlookup with <ctrl><shift><enter><ctrl><shift><enter></enter></shift></ctrl> <ctrl><shift><enter><ctrl><shift><enter>ctrl+alt+shift then I got an error saying "Ambiguous name detected: MLOOKUP"</enter></shift></ctrl></enter></shift></ctrl></enter></shift></ctrl>

Please check if there is another formula MLOOKUP, it might depend on the Excel version you are using (Excel 2003 vs 2010 ?).

Did you enter the formula as a matrix-formula ? <Enter>+<Shift>+<Ctrl>

Are brackets placed around the formula ?

What does No Employee N. mean?

When the employee forgets the scan the product, it appears as No Employee N. However, there is actually an employee on that shift. When I run the VLOOKUP for Federal #2 2nd shift employee, it brings "No Employee N." because it is the first. I want to see Refsland, Chad instead. Thanks.
