Hi, I have a problem in extracting information from an Excel Sheet 1 (entire database), by using an Excel column parameter (Model No) in Sheet 2.

Sheet 1:

Model No Product Info A Product Info B Product Info C ............................
A
B
C
D
E
..........

Sheet 2:

Model No
A
C
E
K
.........

Is there any simple way to extract all the product information from Sheet 1, only for certain Model Nos in Sheet 2?

Please advise.

Thanks much..

strikewind, Good evening.

You can use a VLOOKUP function to do this task.

If you want a more precise advise, please, save a short example of your excel file at a free site, www.speedyshare.com and put a link to download here.

Remember to put some data there and show the desired results.

Is it what you want?
I hope it helps.

I did an example for you:

Attention:
Be careful on using merged cells.
They're a nightmare on searching data on Excel.

Is it what you want?
I hope it helps.
