    Using ISERROR, Match and Address functions

    I have an excel chart where Column A has numbers from 1 to 100 and column B has people's names.
    On another tab (sheet 2), I have created a spreadsheet where I will enter people's names and I want their corresponding ID numbers (from column A, sheet 1) to be displayed on a column beside the names.
    This is the function I'm using:

    IF(ISERROR(MATCH(B10,Sheet1!B:B, 0)), "No Match", INDIRECT(ADDRESS(MATCH(B10,Sheet1!B:B, 0),Sheet1!A:A)))))

    and I can't figure out why I'm not getting anywhere. Anyone can point me towards the right direction?

    Any and all helps are much appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Re: Using ISERROR, Match and Address functions

    Try it this way:

    =IF(ISERROR(MATCH(B10,Sheet1!B:B,0)),"No Match",INDEX(Sheet1!A:A,MATCH(B10,Sheet1!B:B,0)))

    This assumes that your names are in column B of Sheet2, and that the formula is put into row 10 (e.g. in A10, or C10), and it can then be copied down.

    Hope this helps.
