    Nested If, Lookup, Match - Not sure what to use to compare two values

    Hello Everyone,

    I have a table with values going down column A and across row 1. I would like to build a function that would look at the intersecting values and look them up in the seperate tab. If found, display the column header.

    Here is a short example:

    I tried to upload the file but the site is not working properly for some reason. Not sure why becaus eI have done it in the past. I will try again later.

    Thnak you for your assistance,

    Stephen

    As you have values in a row and a column and need to find intersecting values, you would use a combination of the INDEX and MATCH functions, however it is not very clear from your description what you are trying to achieve here?
    Have a go at that upload again ;-)

    I've included one "Key" column in the lookup table. Have a look, let me know if it's not clear.

    That is awesome. I was thinking of trying the concat but could not get it to work right. Thank you for the assistance.

    The code takes less than a minute as you have large data. The result is in lookout sheet.
