Hi Guys,

Can someone assist with this issues that I am having,

Right now I have this on Excel in columns FGH and I have it filtered by 1090150 in column F for now for simplicity.


F

1090150
G

SP33
H

SP33
1090150SP33
1090150SP33
1090150SP33
1090150SP33
1090150SP33
1090150SP33

<tbody>
</tbody>
I am using this VLOOKUP in the H Cells to produce what you see above; =VLOOKUP(F3,$F$3:$G$9999,2,FALSE())

This sheet is 2000+ rows of data and what I want to do is if add in a different value (Not SP33) for example halfway down column G somewhere in the mid thousands then whatever is in was in column G previously against 1090150 will change to the new value which in turn will change whatever is in Column H on all of them.

Let me know if that makes sense because I'm sure I may have murdered that explanation.

Not entirely sure I understand, but maybe this formula...

=LOOKUP(2,1/($F$3:$F$9999=F3),$G$3:$G$9999)

Hi &#55357;&#56395;

Unfortunately that didn’t work, It just left the H column blank

i will explain this one, This is a vehicle plan for the day, SP33 is the vehicle number and 1090150 is the planned route,

Basically the main issue is that if the SP33 breaks down for example the vehicle on that plan now changes to something else, What I need this to do is when I enter a new vehicle number into G5 for this scenarios example I want it to change the original vehicle number that is in G1 to the new number which in turn will change all of column H to the new vehicle

let me know if I need to explain even further

thanks!
