    Referencing columns text across separate worksheets

    Hello,
    I am no expert when it comes to Excel. I've been trying to use VLOOKUP to help me with this but keep getting N/A

    I have 2 worksheets.
    Worksheet one:
    Col 1: Award categories where each row lists multiple categories separated by commas.
    Col 2: Applicant name


    In Worksheet 2 I want:
    Col 1: single Award category (eg. People's Choice)
    Col 2: List of people who applied for this category

    I hope that's clear. Everything is text - no numbers. Thanks.

    Prob best post a spreadsheet.
    A common error is the descriptions not matching, extra spaces, CHAR(160) etc

    Attach a sample spreadsheet, remove any sensitive data.

    Ensure you describe your problem clearly, I have little time available to solve these problems and do not appreciate numerous changes to them.
