Hi,
I got stuck when trying to check a matching value in multiple rows using VLOOKUP(...) function.
Pls see attached excel file for complete details.
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Hi Thanks for your quick response. But my query little different than what is already posted. I am not able attach file so I am giving a sample data here only. [My data is in two different workbook.]
A B C D
1 Item Color Price
2 Pen Red 77 Data
3 Ink Blue 66
4 Pencil Green 55
5 Book Red 66
6 Pen Blue 78
7
8 Item Check Check
Red Blue
9 Pen Y N <- Pen red is available and being displayed
10 Ink N Y
11 Pencil N N
12 Book Y N
13 Pen Y N <- Pen blue is available but not being display
14 gg NF NF

Formula used in C9 cell and copied below: =IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(B9,$A$2:$C$5,2,FALSE)),"NF",IF(VLOOKUP(B9,$A$2:$C$5,2,FALSE)="Red","Y","N"))

Formula used in D9 cell and copied below:
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(B9,$A$2:$C$5,2,FALSE)),"NF",IF(VLOOKUP(B9,$A$2:$C$5,2,FALSE)="Blue","Y","N"))

Hi aalokwar,

There doesn't appear to be a file attached but there are a number of threads on this board that relate to vlookup with multiple values...

Here's one that might help

Thanks dear for your reply:

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.

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,

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"))

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"))

Great!

I'm happy that you have sorted out this issue :)

Tks for providing feedback
