    Concatenate cell based on vlookup cell reference

    I am trying to populate an address field based on a customer list on a different sheet of a workbook. Using Vlookup, I have gotten the customer name and address to pull properly using the customer ID as the lookup value, but I need to concantenate the 'City, State, Zip' fields into one cell. I can get it to pull the information okay if I change the cell reference in the formula each time, but I need it to pull automatically when you type in the vendor ID, just like the vlookup function. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    2014 Purchase order FORM - TEMPLATE.xlsxThis is the bare bones of the workbook. Everything should pull based on cell H6. Right now, although the concatenate function works, it only pulls the data from row 2 instead of based on the vendor ID number.

    Re: Concatenate cell based on vlookup cell reference

    Thanks for the reply, but that isn't quite what I need it to do. I want to pull the information from three cells on a different page, and put them all into one cell, and I only want to type in an ID number in a lookup reference cell. I think I need something that merges the concatenate function with the vlookup function - I'm just not sure how to go about it. You can see the workbook in my last post as an example.

    That is exactly what I needed to do! Thank you both! Although I can't believe I didn't think of that before.......
