Hi,

I'm looking for a way to extract info from a table on a different sheet and hopefully put it onto a results sheet:

Result


Info on Sheet ToDo: This contains the info in its original format Info_A_original, plus a Unique_ID
- It won't always appear in the RawInfo. Although it won't have any blanks, the number of rows will vary

Info on Sheet RawInfo: This contains the info which has already been "translated": Info_version_B & its translated version: Info_version_C_translated
- It won't always appear in sheet ToDo. Although it won't have any blanks, the number of rows will vary
- "Info_version_B's can have mutiple different translations ("Info_version_C_translated") & and vice versa

Info on Results Tab (hopefully!):

i) will take each entry from ToDo [Info_A_original]
ii) check it against the RawInfo [Info_version_B]
iii) and if the Info_A_original is contained in Info_version_B, then list the findings (= Info_version_C_translated & its corresponding Info_version_B)
iv) and have a separate line on the results sheet for each corresponding result

(hopefully this would not be case-sensitive!)

I've seen something similar posted here How to extract multiple values from same lookup

Am new to using the (excellent!) xl2bb, hope it worked ok

Many thanks


PS am using office365
 

Excel Facts

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.
