Hi,

I'm trying to find a medication displayed on sheet 1 within a list of medications (displayed on sheet 3) and output its relevant usage (relevant totals cell displayed on sheet 2) - for example if Allopurinol 100mg tabs is the medication displayed on sheet 1, then the quantity cell should display 272. I have been trying to use the if(isnumber(search function but it only throws out value errors, can anyone help me with this.

Thanks :)

Excel Facts

Easy bullets in Excel
If you have a numeric keypad, press Alt+7 on numeric keypad to type a bullet in Excel.
Not real clear on how your data is set up but this may work...
Place this in Module code....
Code:
Public Function PillTotal(DrugName As String, Rng As Range) As Double
For Each c In Rng
If c.Value = DrugName Then
'Pill total in row "I" of sheet2 ***change to suit
PillTotal = Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(c.Row, "I")
Exit For
End If
PillTotal = 0
Next c
End Function

To operate, if U have the name of the drug your looking for in sheet1A2 and your list of drug names in sheet2 A2:A7 with their corresponding drug totals in column "I" then in sheet1B2 enter this formula...
Code:
=PillTotal(A2,(Sheet2!A2:A7))
