Hello
I am trying to accomplish the following:
On active sheet "B", I would like to reference "$B2" and search for where this cell value is found on sheet "A" which will either be in column B or C and every time I would like the result in sheet "A" column D that corresponds the answer should display on sheet B column C. The match needs to be exact and there will be times where D result is blank. I can get it to work when the lookup area is only one column but two columns is stumping me. Sorry if this is confusing.

Sheet A
HeaderHeaderAnswer I am seeking
11-Ydog
22-Ydog
33-Ycow
4-RB4-RB-Y
55-Yfish
6-RB6-RB-Y

Sheet B
Column to pull referenceResults go here

4-RB

1-Y
4-RB-Y
5-Y

Or this:

Excel Formula:
=LET(a,B2:B8,d,'Sheet A'!D:D,IFERROR(IFERROR(XLOOKUP(a,'Sheet A'!B:B,d),XLOOKUP(a,'Sheet A'!C:C,d)),"Not exists"))

Excel Formula:
=LET(a, XLOOKUP(B2:B8,TOCOL(SheetA!B2:C7),VSTACK(SheetA!D2:D7,SheetA!D2:D7),""), IF(a=0,"",a))
