I want to provide an example of the data I have and see if you guys can help me figure this out in a formula (macros can't be used):
So if I run the VLOOKUP found in Column D right now, it returns "S" because that's the first row with the TIN 12345. Then I drag the formula down and get all of them as S.
Now, what if I wanted to put SUE in all of the rows for this TIN? How can I make it return SUE instead of S? Essentially saying "For this TIN if you find a name that's more than a length of 1, use that name instead".
This spreadsheet has thousands of rows of data. I am just trying to provide the best Middle Name possible for each TIN.
I thought about a VLOOKUP with INDEX/MATCH, but I am just a bit confused by that approach.
