    Exclamation Help!! Filtering large number of data!

    Hello, new member and first time poster here. I apologize if this is the wrong sections or if this has been answered already. I tried searching couldn't find anything that works.I have an excel sheet with customer information, column A has ID #, B-Name, C-last Name, D-DOB, e-Address, f-city, g-zip. I have over 60,000 rows of data, each row being a different customer. I have the ID #'s for 3,000 of these customers on a different sheet, that i need to pull all the info on at once (name,address, dob) to mail out a letter to. How can i filter the 60000 entries to show only the 3000 customers that i need ? I need to collect all the information at once to send to a vendor to print and mail the letters.

    Based on the limited information provided, you could possibly use VLOOKUP. Or depending on the structure of your data, LOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH.

    If the ID is in the leftmost column, you can use VLOOKUP.

    Suggest you post a sample workbook for a more detailed response.

    Here's an an example that should work for you.

    Just paste some of your data on to the data page and type some of those id's onto the mail export page.
