Hello,
How are you wonderful people
I attached an excel sheet in which I will be given two numbers one is from first column (No. 1) and the other is from the table (No.2)

What I want to do is: find No.1 in the first column -> find No2 in the same row of No.1 -> return the value of firs cell in No.2 column

let me rephrase the above sentence
I have to find that number in the table then bring the first value of the column where my original values sits

note: there are duplicate values that's why we can't use Hlookup


Code:

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
See if this works:

=LOOKUP(Q3,ROUND(INDEX($B$3:$N$19,MATCH($Q$4,$A$3:$A$19,0),0),0),$B$2:$N$2)
