    Need Assistance: Formula to use data from one sheet (column) to populate another sheet

    All,

    I am hoping to populate a column with data from another worksheet.

    Basically, I have a set of columns, one for Location, Zip Code, Longitude, and Latitude. I want a formula to say, if the location equals X, then pull the associated information from the other worksheet. Any input would be greatly appreciated -- I assume it would be an if or vlookup, or combination.

    Welcome to the forum.

    it depends.. look for vlookup, index/match, sumproduct functions as your options.

    btw you can upload a sample file here so other members could take a peak suggest better solutions.

    To 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.

    Sounds like you need a lookup formula. See if this helps:

    Attached is an example file. SHEET 1 contains the desired format. SHEET 2 contains the data I would like to insert into SHEET 1. Hopefully this helps.
