Hi everyone -

I'm trying to figure out how to compare values from Sheet1, Column A and Sheet 2, Column B, and if they match to return the values from Sheet2, Columns F, G, and I to Sheet1, Columns F, G, and H.

Confused yet? :) Hopefully that makes sense. Doesn't seem like it should be too complicated I just can't figure it out.

Thank you in advance!
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
It would help if you posted some sample data using XL2BB.
Sorry, sample data below. Also, I mis-typed the comparison columns. This is what I'm looking to do: Compare values from Sheet1, Column A and Sheet 2, Column A, and if they match to return the values from Sheet2, Columns F, G, and I to Sheet1, Columns F, G, and H.

Well, this little data, I would have to assume you mean a row-by-row comparison that would look like this:

Thanks for taking a look at it for me. There is a lot more data but I figured only the column headers and one row of data would be necessary to determine formulas. The formulas appear to just return what is in Column I & F from Sheet2.. it should only return a value when there's a match between Column A from Sheet1 and Column A from Sheet2. So if the addresses match, then populate Columns F, G, and H on Sheet1 with data from Columns F, G, and I from Sheet2.

That's what the formulas did, I thought...when the addresses match, the data was copied. Otherwise, nothing was done.
If you provide a bit more data and what you expect when there's a match, that would help.

Maybe you don't mean row-by-row, but I'm only guessing with only 1 line of data per sheet.

Is this what you mean?
