    Vlookups return result into one cell in their own paragraphs on check box selection

    I have a sheet with 6 check boxes, i have the below formula that will complete a Vlookup when the check box is ticked, what i now need to know how to do is adapt the formula to complete Vlookups when several check boxes are ticked, and then put the result of the vlookups into one cell.

    This formula is the current method i am using but as you will see it only works when one check box is ticked and then populates the result into the one cell.

    =IF(B2=TRUE,(VLOOKUP(Sheet2!A2,Sheet3!A2:B7,2,FALSE)),"")

    Thanks in advance for your help

    Welcome to the forum.

    There are instructions at the top of the page explaining how to attach your sample workbook (yellow banner: HOW TO ATTACH YOUR SAMPLE WORKBOOK). Screenshots are of little practical use as we cannot manipulate them.

    A good sample workbook has just 10-20 rows of representative data that has been desensitised. The sample layout accurately matches that of your real data. It also has expected results mocked up, worked examples where required, relevant cells highlighted and a few explanatory notes.
