I am trying to return multiple values associated with a single lookup ID. Please see following screen shot:
<TABLE style="WIDTH: 141pt; BORDER-COLLAPSE: collapse" cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 width=187 border=0><COLGROUP><COL style="WIDTH: 77pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 3730" width=102><COL style="WIDTH: 64pt; mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 3108" width=85><TBODY><TR style="HEIGHT: 27.75pt; mso-height-source: userset" height=37><TD class=xl69 style="BORDER-RIGHT: white 1pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext 1pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: white 1pt solid; WIDTH: 77pt; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 1pt solid; HEIGHT: 27.75pt; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" width=102 height=37>Workqueue ID #</TD><TD class=xl70 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 1pt solid; BORDER-TOP: windowtext 1pt solid; BORDER-LEFT: white; WIDTH: 64pt; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 1pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" width=85>Associated Rules</TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 12.75pt" height=17><TD class=xl68 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: #f0f0f0; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; WIDTH: 77pt; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; HEIGHT: 12.75pt; BACKGROUND-COLOR: white" align=right width=102 height=17>290</TD><TD class=xl66 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: #f0f0f0; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext; WIDTH: 64pt; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: white" align=right width=85>12</TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 12.75pt" height=17><TD class=xl68 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: #f0f0f0; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; WIDTH: 77pt; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; HEIGHT: 12.75pt; BACKGROUND-COLOR: white" align=right width=102 height=17>291</TD><TD class=xl66 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: #f0f0f0; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext; WIDTH: 64pt; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: white" width=85></TD></TR><TR style="HEIGHT: 12.75pt" height=17><TD class=xl68 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: #f0f0f0; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; WIDTH: 77pt; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; HEIGHT: 12.75pt; BACKGROUND-COLOR: white" align=right width=102 height=17>292</TD><TD class=xl66 style="BORDER-RIGHT: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BORDER-TOP: #f0f0f0; BORDER-LEFT: windowtext; WIDTH: 64pt; BORDER-BOTTOM: windowtext 0.5pt solid; BACKGROUND-COLOR: white" width=85></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

The Associated Rules column is populated by looking up to a spreadsheet which looks like the following:

Of course, vlookups only return the 1st value, but I need to capture all rules associated with each workqueue ID #. How might I accomplish this?

Thank you
 

Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
aagold,

You can try a Funciton created by jindon.

Sample data (you may have to change the sheetnames):


Excel Workbook

5290618

Your main sheet to find the "Rule #":

The formula/function in cell B2 copied down:
=VLookUpMulti(A2,'Rule #'!$A$2:$B$100,2,",",FALSE)





Please TEST this FIRST in a COPY of your workbook (always make a backup copy before trying new code, you never know what you might lose).

Adding the Macro/Function
1. Copy the below macro, by highlighting the macro code and pressing the keys CTRL + C
2. Open your workbook
3. Press the keys ALT + F11 to open the Visual Basic Editor
4. Press the keys ALT + I to activate the Insert menu
5. Press M to insert a Standard Module
6. Paste the code by pressing the keys CTRL + V
7. Press the keys ALT + Q to exit the Editor, and return to Excel


Code:
Option Explicit
Function VLookUpMulti(ByVal strIndex As String, ByVal rng As Range, _
                 Optional ref As Integer = 1, Optional myJoin As String = " ", _

You may have to change the sheetname(s) for the Function.

Hiker,

Thanks very much for your fast response. I'm having some trouble getting the formula to work properly.

To be clear, the elements of the vlookupmulti funtion are:
(lookup value, range, column index #, "seperator", false), correct?

Do I need to alter the VB in the function at all?

Thanks,
Aaron

Correct, but the sheetname and range may be different

You should not.



What is the sheetname that contains the "Rule #"?

Can we have some screenshots?

Please post a screenshot of your sheet(s), what you have and what you expect to achieve, with Excel Jeanie HTML 4 (contains graphic instructions).

Please TEST this FIRST in a COPY of your workbook (always make a backup copy before trying new code, you never know what you might lose).

Adding the Macro
1. Copy the below macro, by highlighting the macro code and pressing the keys CTRL + C
2. Open your workbook
3. Press the keys ALT + F11 to open the Visual Basic Editor
4. Press the keys ALT + I to activate the Insert menu
5. Press M to insert a Standard Module
6. Paste the code by pressing the keys CTRL + V
7. Press the keys ALT + Q to exit the Editor, and return to Excel
8. To run the macro from Excel, open the workbook, and press ALT + F8 to display the Run Macro Dialog. Double Click the macro's name to Run it.


Code:
Option Explicit
Sub FindRuleNbr()
' hiker95, 20100107
Dim ws1 As Worksheet, ws2 As Worksheet, a As Long, IDNbr As Long
Dim c As Range, firstaddress As String, Hold As String
Set ws1 = Sheets("POC2 Build")
Set ws2 = Sheets("WQ_Lookup")
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
With ws1
  For a = 2 To .Cells(Rows.Count, 6).End(xlUp).Row Step 1
    Hold = ""
    IDNbr = .Cells(a, 6).Value
    With ws2.Columns(1)
      Set c = .Find(IDNbr, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlWhole)
      If Not c Is Nothing Then
        firstaddress = c.Address
        Do
          Hold = Hold & c.Offset(, 2).Value & ","
          Set c = .FindNext(c)
        Loop While Not c Is Nothing And c.Address <> firstaddress
      End If
    End With
    If Right(Hold, 1) = "," Then
      Hold = Left(Hold, Len(Hold) - 1)
      ws1.Cells(a, 7) = Hold
    End If
  Next a
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
ws1.Select
End Sub


Then run the "FindRuleNbr" macro".

Hi there,

This has been absolutely fantastic for me - and has really sorted out an issue I was having with a VLookUp that has multiple return values. However, I have hit a stumbling block and don't know where to begin.

In my sheet there is often more than one instance of a value to return (10 lots of 300, for example), and when that happens "#VALUE!" is returned - which I guess means that the duplicates are crashing the formula.

Is there a fix for this? It doesn't really matter whether it comes back with, say, "300" or "300,300,300,300" for my purposes.

Thanks,

Andrew

phl1ag,

Welcome to the MrExcel forum.

What version of Excel and Windows are you using?


I am going to assume that your data structure is not the same as aagold's.

Please do not post your questions in threads started by others - - this is known as thread hijacking.

Always start a new thread for your questions and, if you think it helps, provide a link to any other thread as a reference.

Start a new thread for your question and be sure to give it a search friendly title that accurately describes your need.


After you create a NEW thread, send me a Private Message, with a link to this thread, and, with a link to your NEW thread, and, I will have a look.

Some things to consider with your NEW thread:

Can you post a screenshot of the actual raw data worksheet, and, post a screenshot of the worksheet results (manually formatted by you) that you are looking for?

To post your data, you can download and install one of the following two programs:
Excel Jeanie
MrExcel HTML Maker

Or, when using Internet Explorer, just put borders around your data in Excel and copy those cells into your post.
See reply #2 the BLUE text in the following link:
http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/about-board/444901-how-create-table-like-aladin.html#post2198045

If you are not able to give us screenshots:
You can upload your workbook to Box Net,
sensitive data changed
mark the workbook for sharing
and provide us with a link to your workbook.
