    vlookup to ignore a keyword

    Hi all,

    I am asking for help with my vlookup formula to pull result while ignoring a specific keyword

    Scenario:

    Part A is split across multiple storage locations, "space-0", "space-1", "space-2", etc.

    I want the search result to exclude "space-0"

    Thank you in advance

    Try this:

    =FILTER(Sheet1!A2:B9,(Sheet1!A2:A9=Sheet2!A2)*(Sheet1!B2:B9<>Sheet2!B2))
