Vlookups

How to see if there are dupplicate numbers in vlookups so it doesn't just pull in the first number it finds but lets me know that there are 2 values to choose from

RE: vlookups

Hi Shiereen

Thanks for getting in touch. There are some ways to do this but they are all quite complicated. You can find some creative solutions at this link, but I warn you none of them are straightforward:

You may find it easier if possible to generate a unique value for your data that you can use, or use a COUNTIF function to figure out how many of each value there are first.

I hope this gives you some ideas.

Kind regards
