Hi,

I have a sheet with Id numbers in column A and names in column B, for around 50 workers. In other sheet I have Id number in column A, names in column B, bank name in column C and bank number in column D, for 120 workers. Neither sheet1 and sheet2 are sort in any order. My question is: how can I get data from sheet2 column C and D next to the data in sheet1 in the easiest and fastest way.

Thanx

Hi Abacus,

Sort your data (at least sheet 2) and use VLOOKUP function.

Best regards,
