Thanks dear for your reply:
Item Color Price
Pen Red 77
Ink Blue 66
Copy Green 55
Book Red 66
Pen Blue 78
But this is not actually what I am looking for.
I want result as below:
Item Check Red Check Blue
Pen Y N
Ink N Y
Copy N N
Book Y N
Pen Y N -
gg NF NF
Here Check blue should display Y for Pen as Blue pen is available in data. I am checking with different criteria in different columns.
Hi,
Why do you need two lines for Pen ?
In my proposed layout the first line already shows this result:
Y for Pen Red
and
Y for Pen Blue
In other words you have Pen Red and Pen Blue,
M.
Thanks dear Marcelo Branco, for your valuable support.
I got the solution and I have used following formula:
Formula for Red:
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP($B9,$A$2:$C$6,1,FALSE)),"NF",IF(SUMPRODUCT(($A$2:$A$6=$B9)*($B$2:$B$6="Red"))>0,"Y","N"))
Formula for Blue:
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP($B9,$A$2:$C$6,1,FALSE)),"NF",IF(SUMPRODUCT(($A$2:$A$6=$B9)*($B$2:$B$6="Blue"))>0,"Y","N"))
