Hi.

I have one sheet which contains rows of travel data for multiple users for the week or so ahead. Some of the columns in this sheet are "name" "destination" "from date" "to date"

I have another sheet with similar data in, but it's larger and goes back many months/years.

What I want, is a formula I can put in a cell in the first sheet, which will look up data in the second sheet which matches the conditions for the 4 cells. Let me try to provide an example ...

Sheet1 has
name Destination from date to date
John.Smith London 11/11/2018 15/11/2018
Jane.Sinclair London 11/11/2018 15/11/2018

Sheet2 has
name Destination from date to date
John.Smith Tokyo 05/07/2017 15/08/2017
John.Smith London 11/11/2018 15/11/2018
Clive.Williams London 01/02/2018 15/02/2018
Jane.Sinclair London 07/01/2018 14/01/2018

If the four cells in Sheet 1 can lookup a match in Sheet 2 where all the conditions apply, then put a "yes" in the cell, if not a "no". In this example it would be a yes for John.Smith, but a no for Jane.Sinclair.

Hope that makes sense and someone can help!

Try
=IF(COUNTIFS(TA!B:B,H26,TA!E:E,"*"&N26&"*",TA!D:D,"<="&K26+3,TA!D:D,">="&K26-3)>0,"yes","no")

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
You're welcome & thanks for the feedback
