Search and Return Select Data

[90Shilling]

On one sheet I have a list of students similar to what is below. I am wanting to pull data from another sheet using the student ID#'s.

Sheet #1
column A

Student ID#
1511
1596
1595
1550
1540
1559
1543
1525
1539

So on sheet #2 the search would match the student ID#'s from sheet #1 and then return the Room#'s of only those students that matched back to sheet #1.

Sheet #2
column A

Student ID#
1511
1533
1596
1595
2000
1550
1540
1559
1543
2695
1525
1539
1865

Sheet #2
column B

Room#
11
9
6
13
21
28
17
18
2
4
15
23
27

Any help is appreciated.

Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to make it clear what is needed. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are demonstrated, mock them up manually if needed. Remember to desensitize the data.

Click on GO ADVANCED and use the paperclip icon to open the upload window.

90Shilling, Good afternoon.

Using your scenario:

Sheet#1 - Column A2:A20 --> Student ID#

Sheet#2 - Column A2:A30 --> Student ID#
Sheet#2 - Column B2:B30 --> Room#

The VLOOKUP function do your job easily.

Try this one:
Sheet#1 - Cell B2 --> =VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet2!$A$2:$B$30,2,0)

Copy it down.

Is it what you desire?
I hope it helps.
