    Vlookup help

    I'm not sure if I should be using Vlookup on this.
    So I have datas on Columns A, B and C.
    On column A I have names
    On column B I have email addresses
    On column C I have Phone numbers

    What I want to do is on sheet2, i will populate column A with names, then if any of these names has a match on sheet1, it will populate column B and C with corresponding email address and Phone number.

    Hope you can help.
    (I have enclosed a dummy worksheet)

    Thanks in advance.

    Re: Vlookup help

    With your list of names in Sheet2 Column A, beginning in A2

    In B2
    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    Drag/Fill Across to Column C
    Then both down as far as you need.

    This should avoid errors if your data in Sheet1 is not sorted on column A.

    If it is sorted then VLookup is fine.
    If you need any more information, please feel free to ask.

    However,If this takes care of your needs, please select Thread Tools from menu above and set this topic to SOLVED. It helps everybody! ....

    Re: Vlookup help

    If you want to use Vlookup on Sheet2 then place this formula in B2:
    =VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet1!$A$2:$C$10,2,FALSE)
    and this in C2
    =VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet1!$A$2:$C$10,3,FALSE)

    Data does not need to be sorted in Column A on Sheet1, the FALSE tells it to look for exact match.
