Hi,
I have a tough one here. I have a column of values that I'm cleaning up so they are consistent. Sometimes there are values that have had a few characters cut off in the data collection process. I need a formula that will scan the cleaned up column and identify if there are values that have been cut (since there is a matching initial portion of a text string that matches) and then concatenate the missing values.
For example:
In the attached workbook you will notice cell B19 should match B20:B23, but doesn't because the "AV#***" was cut off in the raw data. I need a formula that will dynamically identify this and concatenate a "AV#***" after the "AV321" in cell B19.
In cell B28 you will see another one that needs the "AA#AABA".
Thanks a ton!!
