Display the data from another sheet with a formula in an excel report
When I am extracting data, most of the time, I only need some of them so in my main sheet, I just put the ones I want. For that, this formula will search the corresponding value from the extracted sheet and it will display it in my main one.
When I use the formula ?
To get the right data for a specific condition from another sheet.
How to use the formula ?
The formula in this topic is with "," so depending of the operating system of your PC, the formula should have ";" instead of ",".
How is/are the formula(s) ?
=VLOOKUP()
Put this formula in sheet2:
=VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet1!A:B,2,0)
I can use the name instead of the cell so in this case:
=VLOOKUP("group1",Sheet1!A:B,2,0)
Vlookup is a very useful function to look for the corresponding value, if you want to know more, read Vlookup, a quick way to find the value of a condition in an excel report.
