Special Vlookup?

[Michel Khennafi]

Good evening....

In a worksheet W1, I have a situation where I an order number O1 that has
been shipped in 1 to N shipments S1, S2,...Sn.

In a worksheet W2, I have rows that represent the shipments but I only have
the order number 01 to identify them.

I would like to add a column and assign each row where O1 is the Shipment
numbers S1 to Sn.


On W1

A B
__ __
1 O1 S1
2 O1 S2


On W2

A B
__ __
1 O1 (Blank)
2 O1 (blank)


Desired Result on W2

A B
__ __
1 O1 S1
2 O1 S2

If I use Vlookup I will only be able to match one for one, so If I put
B1=+vlookup(A1,W2!A1:B2,2,False) I can get the value for the first row (in
that case S1)... What would be the trick to guarantee that I would have S2
on W2!B2?

Any help greatly appreciated


Thanks

One way, if your data is on worksheet W1 A1:B7, on W2 enter in B1 and copy
down. After you type or paste the formula into the formula bar you must hit
Control+Shift+Enter

=INDEX(W1!$B$1:$B$7,SMALL(IF(W1!$A$1:$A$7=A1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&ROWS(W1!$A$1:$A$7))),""),COUNTIF($A$1:A1,A1)))
