Hello,

So lets call the data below is on Sheet 1. I would like to create a formula next to each serial number and FIND serial number on Sheet 2. Then, I would then like to compare the values left of the serial numbers of both sheets and return a value of Match or No Match on Sheet 1. I don't If that can be done with one formula or multiple formulas in multiple columns on Sheet 1. Please help if you can.

Excel Facts

Difference between two dates
Secret function! Use =DATEDIF(A2,B2,"Y")&" years"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"YM")&" months"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"MD")&" days"
This can be achieved using XLOOKUP like below -

Ifs(Xlookup(your lookup on Sheet 2)=Cell.Address to Match,"Match", True,"Not Match")

This would need 1 column per checked Match

I want to match all five columns AFTER the serial number is found. The MATCH depends on result from find formula. I need this to be dynamic since because of sorting and data input, location of serial number will always change.

I have answered for the same only. Create 5 helper columns on sheet 1 and do as I suggested. Once you have data in 5 helper columns use as you want. It's dynamic as you want...

This is what I have so far and tried. I don't know how to make the formula on right dynamic and change range based on result of formula to left.

AhoyNC,

Thank you. The formula doesn't do anything. It treats it like text.

Not sure what you mean by "treats it like text". What does "doesn't do anything" mean, do you get a blank, an error or what? Is the example I posted what your data looks like on sheet 1 & 2?
Did you change ranges to match your data?

It returns a blank cell. It doesn't return n/a , name, or any other typical error message.
