Lookup
Hi,
I have a long code that contains shorter codes that I wish to look them up with similar codes in another sheet, is there anyway that I can do this in one step lookup rather than splitting up these long codes? Thanks -- tarig

Long Code in Sheet 1
Code Description 25-50-658-1234 Product (A) in warehouse (X) 25-51-785-4521 Product (B) in Warehouse (Y) Short Codes in sheet 2 Code Description 50-658 Warehouse (X) 51-785 Warehouse (Y) I want to lookup the short codes in sheet 2 to get their respective descriptions in sheet 1. -- tarig "Eduardo" wrote: Hi, could you please post an example, thanks "Tarig" wrote: Hi, I have a long code that contains shorter codes that I wish to look them up with similar codes in another sheet, is there anyway that I can do this in one step lookup rather than splitting up these long codes?

Hi,
Let's say your partial code starts in A2 in B2 enter =INDEX(sheet1!B:B,MATCH("*"&A1&"*",sheet1!A:A,0)) if you are not using excel 2007 enter =INDEX(sheet1!B1:B3000,MATCH("*"&A1&"*",sheet1!A1: A3000,0)) "Tarig" wrote: Long Code in Sheet 1 Code Description 25-50-658-1234 Product (A) in warehouse (X) 25-51-785-4521 Product (B) in Warehouse (Y) Short Codes in sheet 2 Code Description 50-658 Warehouse (X) 51-785 Warehouse (Y) I want to lookup the short codes in sheet 2 to get their respective descriptions in sheet 1. -- tarig "Eduardo" wrote: Hi, could you please post an example, thanks "Tarig" wrote: Hi, I have a long code that contains shorter codes that I wish to look them up with similar codes in another sheet, is there anyway that I can do this in one step lookup rather than splitting up these long codes?

Hi,
It didn't work! I need the lookup/match results in the sheet that contains the long codes so that I can figure out how much stock I have in my different warehouses -- tarig "Eduardo" wrote: Hi, Let's say your partial code starts in A2 in B2 enter =INDEX(sheet1!B:B,MATCH("*"&A1&"*",sheet1!A:A,0)) if you are not using excel 2007 enter =INDEX(sheet1!B1:B3000,MATCH("*"&A1&"*",sheet1!A1: A3000,0)) "Tarig" wrote: Long Code in Sheet 1 Code Description 25-50-658-1234 Product (A) in warehouse (X) 25-51-785-4521 Product (B) in Warehouse (Y) Short Codes in sheet 2 Code Description 50-658 Warehouse (X) 51-785 Warehouse (Y) I want to lookup the short codes in sheet 2 to get their respective descriptions in sheet 1. -- tarig "Eduardo" wrote: Hi, could you please post an example, thanks "Tarig" wrote: Hi, I have a long code that contains shorter codes that I wish to look them up with similar codes in another sheet, is there anyway that I can do this in one step lookup rather than splitting up these long codes?
