Comparing two columns
Hi
I`d be happy if someone helped me with this .. i`m trying to compare data between two columns or tables, and if they match I`d like to get the result of column G. For example if there is a match between B2 - F2 then i`l get the result of column G2 and so on throughout the table.. file is attached.. Thanks |

Many thanks ... I just forgot to explain that the comparison should actually be on the entire F column not just F2 ..how do I change it ?

F2 is checked against B2:B1002. Similarly for F3, F4, ..... , F1869
What exactly is wrong in column H? Plese show excamples. Last edited by xor; 05-19-2018 at 01:54 AM. |

Sorry for the late response .. my goal is to check each cell in the B column against entire F column . and to obtain the result of the symbol listed next to it (cell G).
Next issue is, that the names in Column B and Column F do not match 100 percent, but the first word usually does . Is there a way to overcome this as well ? |

as yuo`v seen...i have two tables side by side ,company name and its symbol. I need a formula that will lookup for columns A or B in the list of column F or G. And getting the result in column H ...
The problem is that there is not always accurate match between columns, for example in column A symbol might be described AABA. and in column G registered AABA.O .. Also the company's full name is sometimes registered differently, for example column A the company's full name described -Agilent Technologies, but in column G - AGILENT TECH. If you have a solution for that i would be very happy.. |

Apart from the not exact match is this what you want
If it is please describe exactly how the names can differ. |

You didn't answer my question in the first line of #8
As to the not exact match problem you might want to take a look at: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/down....aspx?id=15011 |
