Dear all,

I have a question about a formula. I have an excel sheet having a list of 180 names. All the names has a specific value. For eg. abc - 500, xyz - 700, jkl - 200 and so on.

This list of names & values are in Sheet 1, and I want a formula to work in Sheet 2. The moment I write the name, the next cell will automatically show the corresponding value which is there in Sheet 1. For eg. if in Sheet 2, I write abc in cell A1, the cell B1 will be filled by the value 500.

PLease guide & help

Thanks & Regards

Round to nearest half hour?
Use =MROUND(A2,"0:30") to round to nearest half hour. Use =CEILING(A2,"0:30") to round to next half hour.

Dear Sir,

Wow, its working amazingly perfect. Thank you so much sir. You have solved the problem in minutes.

Wherever the names are there, next cell is showing the corresponding values & where the name is not there, it shows #N/A. So can we make it blank instead of this #N/A value ??

If we can, it will be great, otherwise it is a great solution and thank you once again for the guidence & help.

Thanks & Regards

Try

=IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(A1,Sheet1!A:A,0)),INDEX(Sheet1!B:B,MATCH(A1,Sheet1!A:A,0)),"")
