Hello All, I am attaching a sample of my problem. I need to do Vlookup from a Range which has Codes in Col A and Text in Col B.
I want to have the output required (highlighted in Yellow) on Col D based on the Answers Col C. My problem is that the Codes are delimited with ]. I do not want to separate the Answers using Text to Column. I tried the following and got the desired result if there is only one code in the Answers Column. =VLOOKUP(LEFT(C2,FIND("]",C2)-1),RangeCodes,2,0) As you can see in the attached sheet if there are many Codes combined together then I cannot get the desired result. Is there a formula or a UDF which can give me the desired result. Please note that there are several Columns with the Codes combined. I have just used a sample column to demonstrate my problem. TIA Rashid Khan -- Are you =EXP(E:RT) or =NOT(EXP(E:RT)) in Excel? And do you wanna be? It’s =TIME(2,DO:IT,N:OW) !
