Hello everybody,

I currently have an excel sheet that looks similar to this (but much larger):

And then a master data sheet next to it that looks like this:

1616664618849.png


Please note that some of the titles are not in the master data set (in reality however, they all are, i just created this example really quickly).

I would like to create a formula so the blank cells in column B in the "Front" sheet connects to the filled out cells corresponding to them in the sheet "Master data".

Right now I am on the ID XG5 (this is picked manually from a drop-down list in the real file). So I would like for the formula to somehow index the number XG5 under [ID] in master data and then connect the data for Name, Name abbreviation, Registration Number etc. to the corresponding data in the same column as XG5 in "Master Data". Likewise, if I pick XG6 as my ID, it should follow this.

I have seen this being done before and I'm pretty sure that an IFERROR(INDEX(MATCH))) formula can solve the problem. However, I have thus far been unable to set this up correctly and would truly apprecaite it if someone here could help me out!

Please do not hesitate to let me know if you would like more photos or information!

Thank you so much everybody :)

Kind regards,

Jyggalag

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
C7: =IFERROR(INDEX('Mater data'!$A$1:$D$7,Match($C$6,'Master Data'!$A$1:$A$7,0),Match(E7,'Master Data'!$A$1:$D$1,0)),"")

Solution
C7: =IFERROR(INDEX('Mater data'!$A$1:$D$7,Match($C$6,'Master Data'!$A$1:$A$7,0),Match(E7,'Master Data'!$A$1:$D$1,0)),"")
Amazing! It worked :)

Thank you so much mart37!! You've made my day :D
