This is a very large data set. The S/N will appear multiple times. The rest of the data will change with each entry, but there are some exceptions where it may be the same.</SPAN>
The second workbook has this data:</SPAN>
ID</SPAN></SPAN>
S/N</SPAN></SPAN>
A</SPAN></SPAN>
B</SPAN></SPAN>
P/N</SPAN></SPAN>
Born-on-Date</SPAN></SPAN>
Date Rec</SPAN></SPAN>
Ship Date</SPAN></SPAN>
Customer 1</SPAN></SPAN>
123456</SPAN></SPAN>
ABCD1234</SPAN></SPAN>
1 thru 14</SPAN></SPAN>
Yes or No</SPAN></SPAN>
1234567899</SPAN></SPAN>
03/10/2007</SPAN></SPAN>
11/07/2013</SPAN></SPAN>
11/22/2013</SPAN></SPAN>
Customer A</SPAN></SPAN>
123457</SPAN></SPAN>
ABCC5432</SPAN></SPAN>
1 thru 14</SPAN></SPAN>
Yes or No</SPAN></SPAN>
1234569765</SPAN></SPAN>
04/25/2011</SPAN></SPAN>

This too is a very large data set. What I need to do is to find the S/N in the first table – based on the month – and replace the entry under Customer 1 with the associated Customer 2 data entry.</SPAN>
The VLOOKUP function can’t seem to handle the multiple S/N entries.</SPAN>
Any suggestions?</SPAN>

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
