Thanks for the rep comment in which you say that the solution works.
Please update your forum profile to the CORRECT version of Excel (365).
If that takes care of your original question, please choose Thread Tools from the menu link above and mark this thread as SOLVED.

Provide a sample workbook that shows the error (desensetise it).
OK here you go.
Not surprising - you haven't adapted any of the ranges to suit the real data!

Issues:

2. Row 9 - there will be multiple matches - what do you want to do in these cases?
3. Row 25 - no other location with that product.
