Please help I am tearing my hair out with this. Technically I could do it manually and it probably wouldn't take any longer than a couple of hours, but I really want to learn formulas. What it is is I've been asked to input payroll numbers onto a spreadsheet that has been created from a query on a staff training database, unfortunatley the database didn't have the payroll numbers on it.
So in my spreadsheet (that was run from the database) I have created a blank column in a, this is where I want the payroll numbers to go. In column b is a first name, column c is the surname, column d onwards is all other kind of info that was brought over from the database. There are thousands of rows because each member of staff had more than one record. I need to transfer the payroll numbers across from another spreadsheet that I have. In this other spreadsheet the payroll number is in a, first name in b, and surname in c.
I have tried Hlookup and Vlookup but I don't think this works for my type of query. Is there anything in excel that can do this?
Thanks!
