This might be easy for you but i need to use one vlookup formula since i am dealing with many numbers in two Columns.
I have two sheets one of them is Sheet1 other one is Sheet2
Both of them have two columns. Columns A contains "Materialnumber" and Column B contains "Status". Sheet1 has more "Materialnumbers" inside then Sheet2
but Sheet2 includes correct "Status", so thatswhy if "Materialnumbers" are matching i would like to have the "Status" value of Sheet2 in Sheet1's Column C.
I know i should write the vlookup code in Sheet1's Column C. But what is the right formula for this?
Thanks in advance.
You're right - just a VLOOKUP needed in column C.
In C2 put this formula:
=VLOOKUP($A2,Sheet2!$A$1:$B$12,2,FALSE)
It looks at the value in Sheet1 A2.
Compares that value against the first column in the range $A$1:$B$12 (update the range as required).
Returns the value from the second column (B).
Only returns on an exact match (FALSE).
Try this in cell C2 on Sheet1:
=VLOOKUP($A2,Sheet2!A:B,2,0)

Intended behaviour
Where two values in the same row of two different columns MATCH two values in the same row of two different columns in another sheet, the data in the same row of the third column of the additional sheet is displayed in a third column of the original sheet.
For example...
Where Sheet1 A2 ("1") AND B2 ("A") MATCH Sheet2 A5 ("1) AND B5 ("A"), the value in Sheet2 D5 (1500%) should be displayed in C2 of Sheet1
I have read the below similar questions:
Match two columns in table to two columns in separate table and return value &
Match values in two columns and return value using vlookup from third column in Excel
and tried working them into my spreadsheet but the data I get back is either a "" (blank), "#VALUE" or "#NA"
The below formula seems to be the closest potential resolution but sadly it's spitting out blank from what seems to be an error 🤔
I have also tried the below formula with CSE (Ctrl +Shift + Enter) but nothing 😕
=IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet2!D2:D7, MATCH(Sheet1!A2:A7,Sheet2!A2:A7,0),MATCH(Sheet1!B2:B7,Sheet2!B2:B7,0)),)
Any assistance would be appreciated for this excel noob, thank you :)
You can try this in your Sheet1!C2:
=INDEX(Sheet2!$D$2:$D$7,MATCH(1,(Sheet2!$A$2:$A$7=Sheet1!A2)*(Sheet2!$B$2:$B$7=Sheet1!B2),0))
I have the below VLOOKUP formula
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(#B5:B64,dbVEH!$A$2:$E$296,5,FALSE),"")
I am trying to create a formula that searches 2 columns on the table array. I have the range A$2:$E$296 however it only matches the A column and delivers the result from the E column.
I am trying to create a formula so that if Cell B5 on my main sheet = anything in column A OR anything in column B on the "dbVEH" sheet then display the result from the 5th E column on "dbVEH" in cell B5 on my main sheet.
My reasoning behind this is that I'm trying to cover alternative spellings inputted into B5:B64 on my main sheet. One cell could have "Thomas" and another cell could have "Tomas" but they both need to equal the same result. My table on sheet dbVEH has the first column "Thomas" and the second column "Tomas" to cover the different spelling types.
VLOOKUP will not do that. Use FILTER:
=#FILTER(dbVEH!$E$2:$E$296,(B5=dbVEH!$A$2:$A$296)+(B5=dbVEH!$B$2:$B$296))
I have 2 worksheets that are connected through a unique ID column shared by the two sheets. I made the two below spreadsheets to test the formula as my actual data is quite long.
I am using the INDEX and MATCH formulas to pull a value from Sheet2 to populate a cell in Sheet1 if the ID value found in the row of Sheet1 matches an ID value found in Sheet2. I can accomplish this with the following formula
=INDEX(Sheet2!B:B,MATCH(Sheet1!A:A,Sheet2!A:A,0))
However, what I am actually after is for the INDEX to SUM of all values in the WGT column on Sheet2 on Sheet1 when there is a MATCH between the two ID columns (I know with this test data there are two instances of every ID on Sheet2). The above formula only INDEXes the first WGT value when a MATCH is found between the ID columns.
I am pretty sure I am supposed to use some variation of the SUMIF formula but I can't seem to get one that works at all. Thanks for any help!
The syntax for Sumif is Sumif(criteria range, criterion, [sum range]). So, you would need in Sheet2, cell B2
=sumif(Sheet1!A:A,Sheet2!A2,Sheet1!B:B)
In words: generate a sum or all numbers in column B of Sheet1, where column A of Sheet1 equals the value of cell A2 on Sheet2.
Copy that down.
Alternatively, you could click in the data of Sheet1 and insert a pivot table. Drag the ID field into the Rows area and the WGT field into the Values. Just a few clicks, no formula.
Another option to use Sum + Index function
In sheet1, B2 array formula copied down :
=SUM(INDEX(Sheet2!B:B,N(IF(1,(Sheet2!A:A=A2)*ROW(Sheet2!A:A)))))
This is an array formula and needs to be confirmed by pressing with Ctl + Shift + Enter.
I have a document with 2 sheets: sheet1 and sheet2. In sheet1, in column A I have =RANDBETWEEN(1,100) values. On the second column B, I want to reference values from column A from sheet2, however using the indices pointed out in column A from sheet1.
I tried with the following command, =sheet2!$A$(sheet1!A1) but with no success.
Can you please recommend me a solution to this problem?
If your set up is thus (not entirely clear on this from your question):
On Sheet1
Formula in A1 =RANDBETWEEN(1,10)
Formula in B1 =INDEX(Sheet2!A:A,A1)
On Sheet2
I am working on a formula that delivers text from a cell in another sheet, that is to the left of a matched cell. This is as far as I have got.
=LOOKUP(A2,Sheet1!$A$1:$A$46729,Sheet1!$B$2:$B$46729)
In sheet 1 there is a selection of product data. There are product numbers in column A and there needs to be the correct barcode placed in each cell in column B. In sheet 2 there are also product codes in column A and barcodes in column B. However there are significantly more rows of data in Sheet 2.
What is needed is a formula to place in Sheet1!B2 that looks up Sheet1!A2 in Sheet2!A2:A50000. If A2 is matched at e.g. Sheet2!A90, then the result in Sheet1!B2 should be the value in Sheet2!B90. The specific issue I am having is getting the Sheet2!B90 in Sheet1!B2.
You can use Index/Match:
=Index(Sheet2!$B$2:$B$46729,Match(A2,Sheet2!$A$2:$A$46729,0))
Or VLOOKUP:
=VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet2!$A$2:$B$46729,2,false)
The last parameters of the MATCH and VLOOKUP functions respectively are very important as it forces it to search for an exact value and not assume a sorted list. VLOOKUP would no longer work if you reversed columns A and B on Sheet2 because the lookup column has to be the first column in the lookup range.
