Hello,


I would like to match reference numbers with images names using vba code.


In one column "E" there are unique reference numbers, in column "F" are images names, in column "H" are url path to these images.


I would like to assign ref number to its corresponding images. Name of images includes names of ref numbers, for example:


ref. images:
fe 4211 fe-4211-3.jpg
fe-4211-e-3.jpg
fe-4211.jpg


I would like to link every single ref # with its images and separated output by coma within one cell. Of course there are much more
unique ref numbers and unordered list of images. I want to search images matching ref numbers


pattern of ref number are 2 letters plus 4 digits such as:
yy 3311
aa 3345
....


pattern of images files are
yy-3311-a.jpg
yy-3311-14.jpg
yy-3311-4.jpg
yy-3311.jpg
yy-3311-3-gimp.jpg
yy-3311-magen1-a.jpg
ct-4399-f.jpg
fo-5443-yy-8.jpg
fw-1305-3d.jpg
......
so part of first part of images name are the same : 2letter-4digit


Can you help me to write macro for this. I attached sample xlsx file.


Thank you,
