This would extend your formula:

To add more, replace the last set of quotes "" with the below formula extension and update the wording. Paste in B1 and pull down.

You can keep replacing the last "" with the full above code to keep extending it. Making sure all labels are added in A1 before dragging the code down.

How many options are there? If less than 5, maybe an inclusive Lookup or an IF. If more than 5, than maybe create a table with what might be in A in column 1 and what you want returned in column 2, then do a vlookup on that table.

In about 42 Categories. Is it possible to use the formula that playaller suggests me?


Thanks..

The method I proposed will deff work but is just a basic method. V-lookup or Match would be easier and more logical in the long run if you're updating the list.

If you had for example your master list in sheet 2.
In column A all of the Devices
Column B all of the converted Labels next to each device.

That way a vlookup can easily be used on sheet one column B to pull the name from your list in sheet 2 matching column A on sheet 1. This would make it easier to update the list on sheet 2 with the formula in place rather than re-updating the formula over and over in sheet one.

Ofcourse if your products don't change then 1 and done with my original method is fine. The preference is yours.
