Hello All,
New to the forum and kindly request your expertise. Not certain if this question has been posted before.
Specifically, in the function: MATCH(lookup_value, lookup_array, [match_type]), can we combined the "lookup_value" with OR function???
Tried using a VLOOKUP with MATCH; inside the MATCH function, tried adding an OR function as a lookup value...but was not successful.

**Column Headers(ROW 1)
-Columns can be 10 to 50
-Column headers not in the same location
-Column header names can be different... on Summary, column header must be called: Product. On Data, Column headers can be called: "Product", "Item", "Style" or "Model".

Perhaps VLOOKUP and MATCH won't work, so any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you!!!
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
Hi Dante,
Can the cell ranges: Column F, G, H be on a separate tab in the same workbook?

How about

Copy to the right and then down
