VLOOKUP Across Multiple Columns?

Aug 19, 2013

Basically, I have an array of data (let's say A2:D20). I then want to do a VLOOKUP across the columns A:D, and return the corresponding value in column G, if VLOOKUP can find a particular value from column F, say.

So, I need a VLOOKUP function written in G2, that finds the value E2 in EITHER A2,B2,C2 or D2 (and return what is in E2, say).

I first thought I could CONCATENATE the strings in A2, B2, C2 and D2 and use some sort of VLOOKUP that finds a string within another string.

VLookup - Single Value Lookup Returning Multiple Records Into Multiple Columns

Feb 7, 2014

Certification and Training tracking.xlsx

I want to create a certification only list on a separate tab of training that has been completed where a certification has been issued (as indicated by a "Y" in the "Certification?" column on the training tracking tab) and then populate from some of the fields vs. all of the fields.

What I have now, only pulls the first occurence, not all occurences. I saw that I could have identified the multiple columns that needed to be populated, but it didn't work either, so I'm fine putting a separate vlookup in each column.

VLOOKUP On Multiple Columns?

Jun 10, 2014

I've used VLOOKUP based on matching one column and returning one result. No problem. Now I need to return one result based on 3 columns matching.

Assume this range of columns is named: TravelDays
Origin...Location...ShipVia...TravelDays
33778...420...UPS...3
33778...425...UPS...1
33778...440...UPS...3
33778...443...UPS...3
33778...446...UPS...2
33778...447...UPS...3
33778...449...UPS...5
33778...475...UPS...3

What I'm trying to accomplish is if these columns match:
i2=Lookup!TravelDays,1
E2=Lookup!TravelDays,2
N2=Lookup!TravelDays,3

My result should be: Lookup!TravelDays,4

VLOOKUP Across Multiple Columns?

Dec 16, 2012

I have a list of names I need to look up against another list. My problem is that the second list has a mixed formatting of Firstname Lastname and Lastname Firstname. What I did so far is create a second column that reverses the first and last names in the column.

Table1:

A
B

1
Name
Name (reversed)

2
John Smith
Smith John

3
Jackson Laura
Laura Jackson

4
Maxwell Ted
Ted Maxwell

5
Chris Hansen
Hansen Chris

Table2:

A
B

1
Name
Currently employed?

2
John Smith
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP([A1; Table1!A:A;1;FALSE));"NO"; "YES")

3
Laura Jackson

4
Ted Maxwell

5
Chris Hansen

The VLOOKUP formula works great but I need it to look for a matching name across Table1:A:B not just Table1:A:A. How would I do this?

How To Get VLOOKUP Over Multiple Columns

Jul 20, 2011

i am trying to get a VLOOKUP to work over a number of different columns. An example the problem:

Sheet1

A B

1 10
2 20
3 30
4 40
5 50

Sheet1 is the sheet i want to lookup the values and i want to place the results into column B

Sheet2

A B C
1 10 40 50
2 20
3 30

Sheet2 contains all the infromation that i want to look for to make the comparison.

I know that the expression used for the VLOOKUP is:

Code:
VLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,col_index_num,range_lookup)

The issue i have is "col_index_num" as i want to look over multipule columns. I have been using this expression:

Code:
=VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet2!$A$1:$J$20000,1,FALSE)

How do i change the "col_index_num" to look over all 3 columns and not just the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd?

Essentially VLookup Off Multiple Columns

Oct 27, 2013

creating an equation that could essentially vlookup off multiple columns.

I get a report once a week with a list of employee ID numbers. I have a separate spreadsheet with employee names, ID 1, ID 2, ID 3, ID 4, in columns A,B,C,D,E , respectively.

I am trying to put a forumla in the report where it will take the employee ID number and reference it to my separate spreadsheet and give me back a name if it matches any of the 4 IDs that pertain to that employee.

I've tried index/match but I believe match only looks at one column.

Vlookup Search Of Multiple Columns

Feb 23, 2007

I have an XLS sheet filled with every zip code in the US... the zips are in multiple columns adjacent to columns with the corresponding county names.

Unfortunately, the there are up to EIGHTEEN columns of zip codes in each row describing the counties... not one zip per row. I'm assuming this was done to save space.

In another sheet, I have list of client zip codes and need to VLOOKUP the corresponding county from the first sheet. I'm certain I'm not using VLOOKUP right...I'm getting #N/A every time.

Is this because it's only checking the first column of zip codes? I need it to check all 18 columns of course... there are no repeated zips.

How do I do this without rebuilding the full zip database page?

Looking Up Value In Table (multiple; Unique Id; Columns For No Vlookup)

Mar 30, 2009

What formula should I use so that it will find the match with a 6-column table (with every other column containing the 'reference' items, so I can't use vlookup)

So that it will return the value next to the match

(instead of returning gibberish, will return a number instead)

Solved

Okay had that table setup that way because I needed separate tables ("linked" comboboxes")

So I just altered it so that the vlookup range changes dependent on the value of combobox 1.

Multiple Columns Which Need To Be Combined With Some Columns Not Having All Cells Fill

Apr 30, 2014

I have a spreadsheet with 10 columns which are for tags for products. Some columns are filled in for 10 products and some are not. For instance, product 1 has 7 tags while product 2 has only 2 tags and so on. Now what I am looking to do is combine all the tags for each product with a "," inbetween each one. The problem is if I just use a simple =A2&","&B2&","&C2 etc formula is that if there are only 2 tags then I get 8 ","s. I also tried it with an IF statement but by the time I was done nesting items I became cross eyed and said there has to be an easier way to do this.

I have create a spreadsheet with the data and the result that I typed into the "result" column.

Copy Multiple Columns Groups To 1 Group Of X Columns

Aug 6, 2009

Example:................

The key point is that I have over 400 columns grouped in three, offset by one row down for each (this is due to a different formula I have working). Each column is 60 numbers long (not including empty cells above data). I want to copy all of these columns into a single set of three columns on another sheet (Sheet2). (These will be the fifth, sixth, and seventh columns, E, F, and G. If it would be simpler, I could simply copy the third of each set of columns on Sheet1 (C, F, I) to column G of Sheet2. Then there would be a total of 144 columns being copied (60 numbers per column).) All of this copying has to be values-only as the original columns consist of formulas referencing outside cells. Sheet2 should look like this:.............

Sort Multiple Columns, With Blanks, And Move All Columns Into One

Feb 15, 2010

I found this code on Ozgrid to sort all columns of a worksheet that were continuous with no gaps or spaces that works well:

Sub CopyToA()
Do While ActiveCell <> ""
Range(ActiveCell, ActiveCell.End(xlDown)).Cut Destination:=Range("a65535").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Select
Loop
End Sub

However, I've tried to manipulate the code myself to 1) find all columns that aren't empty then 2) sort each column individually (WITHOUT expanding the sort to other columns) and 3) combining all the numbers into one seperate column. There are many posts concerning sorting but not one that addressed this particular situation.
