Hello Chandoo & Gang,
Please bear with me, I'm not an expert with nesting so I hope I can explain this right. Is there away to get a formula/nested formula to provide data:
On one spreadsheet we have a list of center numbers that are unique (5215 records/rows) that is our starting point for a vLookup. The table array/range lives on a seperate tab and is made up of 2205 records/rows
Is something like this possible?
Does cell A2 (06316) from Tab 1 exist anywhere in range A1:E2205 on ss 2 and if so return value from E (5)?
I have a fairly good understanding of the vLookup. And realzie it is normally looking at a vertical range and in my experience it is ALWAYS looking at the left most column for the unique. However, you all are the experts so if there IS a way I'm looking to learn
Is there another formula I can use? Essentially what we are trying to do is:
If value on spreadsheet1 exists anywere in "this range of cells" on spreadsheet two, return this "value" from spreadsheet 2.
I've uploaded a simplified version of our spreadsheet.
