Vlookup Question

    Vlookup Question

    Okay, I've asked this question before... but I'm still unclear on the solution.

    I have a list of part numbers in Column A on Sheet1, I would like to be able
    to do an exact match Vlookup with Column B on Sheet 2.

    When there is a match, I would like to have the matches generated in column
    A of Sheet 3, but in addition to this, if there is a match, I would like the
    columns B,C,D,E & F from sheet 2 also populate along with the matching part
    number on Sheet 3. When I asked this question before, I was told to just use
    Vlookup for the additional data, I have the part numbers only in Sheet 1, no
    other columns worth of data to match against Sheet 2. Can anyone Help??

    Thanks!

    If I understand correctly, try this.

    On sheet 3 select cells B1:F1. While still selected type in this formula.

    =VLOOKUP(Sheet1!A1,Sheet2!$B$1:$F$5,{1,2,3,4,5},0)

    Now hit CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER

    You can now select B1:F1 and pull down and you should have the part numbers
    from sheet 1 in column B of sheet 3 and the stuff in columns C, D, E, and F
    of sheet 2 next to their part numbers on 3.

    If you can't make this work, send me a sample work book and I will see what
    I can do.

    HTH

    This is closer to what I am trying to get but I got all #N/A's; any
    suggestions?

    Re: Vlookup Question

    Okay, I believe I gave you some bad info. After I rechecked my test results
    of what I thought you were after, I see that the pull down did not advance
    the lookup value cell on sheet 1. It remained A1. Not sure why??

    The #N/A means the lookup value is not matched. May look the same but could
    have leading/trailing spaces and such. Since it's part numbers then I don't
    suspect a non match because of a .9999 value showing up as a 1 and therefore
    not match.

    Send me a sample workbook of your data and I will give it a go. 'splain
    again what you are after in some detail in the email.

    Regards,
    Howard
