    How to find multiple occurrences with a vlookup

    Hello all,

    I have a sheet used to recall daycare workers who are laid off cyclically. Each year depending on student enrollment daycare working % changes. This sheet you type in an employee number it uses Vlookup and a retrieves all the pertinent info from last year that's stored in a table on a separate tab.

    The problem: If someone appears twice on the list (if they hold 2 50% at 2 different locations) is there a way to have the vlookup continue down the list to find the next occurrence? I was thinking of maybe having this proposed formula linked with a button "NEXT" so that when clicked the vlookup with continue down the list and find the next one.

    Thank you so much anyone who can help!

    Attach a sample workbook not an image. Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. 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 shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.
