Hi,
I'm trying to compare two arrays that each contain 4 numbers, along with another array that contains 3 numbers to find common numbers between all three arrays. The "Key Digits" are in columns R-S-T-U, the "Mirrors" are in columns Y-Z-AA-AB, and the "RBG" numbers are in columns AE-AF-AG. I'd like a 'pull-down' formula that does a comparison and displays matching numbers into columns AH-AI-AJ (labeled "Match" below). Here's the tricky part: because there are three columns to contain these "matching" numbers, there could be up to 3 digits that match, but there could also be no digits that match. If there are no digits that match, I'd like the function to leave the cells blank. There won't be duplicate values among matching digits. I've been doing this manually but there's a lot of data and I'm making mistakes due to eye strain and fatigue, so any help would be appreciated.
It looks like this:
<table style="width: 717px; height: 74px;" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><colgroup><col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:1365; width:29pt" width="38" span="3"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:1365;width:29pt" width="38"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:1080;width:23pt" width="30"> <col style="width:48pt" width="64"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:910;width:19pt" width="26"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:1365; width:29pt" width="38" span="3"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:1365;width:29pt" width="38"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:910;width:19pt" width="26"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:2247;width:47pt" width="63"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:1223; width:26pt" width="34" span="2"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:1223;width:26pt" width="34"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:1223; width:26pt" width="34" span="2"> <col style="mso-width-source:userset;mso-width-alt:1223;width:26pt" width="34"> </colgroup><tbody><tr style="height:14.4pt" height="19"> <td colspan="4" class="xl80" style="height:14.4pt;width:116pt" width="152" height="19">Key Digits
