Hi, blindesti90!


Sorry to say but even after looking at the video and downloading your workbook I don't understand what do you want to do. My first doubt (upon this one many others will appear, I think):

a) About "1 - if next cell to find result contain yes (or other thing)"

Please define the argument to be searched, the range where to search and the criteria (equal, higher, lower)


Regards!

hmmm i simplified a little...... (there in my work file i dont have cases to not find a number from sheet2 in sheet1) from !sheet2 i need to select each cell from column A(extract data from one cell) and search in !sheet1 column A for extracted data and read next cell ready to last result of search for yes or no(or other thing - mean other that "yes" or "no" words)if there is "yes" it will return to !sheet2 column B "1"; else "3".. finish...if next cell that i extract data that i need to put on search is = with the previous number searched already i simply stop and put '2" in result cell

Hi, blindesti90!

So taking the 1st 3 values of source range (Sheet2!B2:B4, i.e., 10, 10, 10) would you please explain in other words how do you arrive to 1, 2, 2, for column C?

Regards!

"1" mean for example : sheet2!A2 (thats "10")i search in sheet1!A:A, and i get last result founded and i look at colomn B for what is there, if there is "yes" in sheet2!B2 i write "1", if there is "no" then there i write "3"...after all i found that last result after search is in sheet1!A3 and ready to last result there is "yes" that mean that in sheet2!B2 i write "1"


next what "2" mean...for example next cell(sheet2!A3) the same contain "10" like was in (sheet2!A2)if both are equal then search stop and in sheet2!B3 i write "2"


next cell is sheet2!A4 is the same "10" the same result there must be in B4 "2"


next cell (sheet2!A5) is "14" after looking in sheet1!A:A i found that ready to last result there is "no" that mean that in sheet2!B5 there i write "3"...


and so on till the end....


sorry english is not my first language... xD
