MLookup:How to use

[jomili]

I've copied the code from http://www.excelfox.com/forum/f12/vlookup-return-multiple-values-4/, but I'm restricted from downloading the example. I can't figure out how to use the function as a lookup, because I'm not sure what the NthMatch is supposed to be. Also, I'm assuming this can used to look in multiple directions, but have no idea of how to set the directionality. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Great function, and was able to use exactly how I wanted to. However, I'm working with 15,000+ lines of data, and it's returning all the duplicates as well. Is there a way to modify, so it only returns a unique value once?

Hi

try this http://www.excelfox.com/forum/f12/function-to-concatenate-values-3/

[cwmichael81]

Great function, but I don't think it will help me in this situation. I've used the Mlookup function to compare columns between two different workbooks. It looks up a job ID in the table, and returns the name of the company in the next column. I used Mlookup because the same job ID can be associated with more than 1 company. It finds the job ID, and gives me all the different company names it is associated with.

For example, Mlookup browses through 15k+ lines of data, and will return in one cell "Company A, Company B, Company A, Company A, Company F, Company E, Company F, Company Z"

So what I gain from that is that job ID is associated with only 5 companies. I don't want it to return every single instance of when it appears. Does that help?

[Admin]

Hi

Attach the workbooks with expected results. May be we can provide VBA code to do the trick.
