Hello everyone,
thanks in advance for your time.
I've got this problem:
1. I have a list of almost 24K ID numbers.
2. I have a table with ranges, saying: "from ID #1.000.000 to ID #2.000.000 was born in 1920"; and so with another 65 ranges, saying from this ID to that ID was born in this year. Look: https://snag.gy/lGVoQ1.jpg
3. So, I must check every ID I have with these conditions. Of course, I need to obtain the year that ID was born.

How can I get this done?
Thanks !
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Sort by date Sort by votes
Hi and welcome to the forum.

This will do what you want:

Code: 
Sub KedForum2()
    Dim Srch As Long, lr As Long, rw As Long, Fnd As Long, Str1 As String, Str2 As String
    With Sheet1 'Change the sheet of the data here
        lr = .Cells(.Rows.Count, 7).End(xlUp).Row
        Srch = InputBox("Enter the ID you want to search for (leave out the period marks!)", "ID needed...")
        For rw = 2 To lr
            Str1 = .Cells(rw, 7)
            Str1 = (Left(Str1, 1) & Mid(Str1, 3, 3) & Right(Str1, 3))
            Str2 = .Cells(rw, 8)
            Str2 = (Left(Str2, 1) & Mid(Str2, 3, 3) & Right(Str2, 3))
            If Srch >= CLng(Str1) And Srch <= CLng(Str2) Then
                MsgBox "The year born is " & .Cells(rw, 9), , "Found year..."
                Exit Sub
            End If
        Next
    End With
    MsgBox "Sorry, year not found.", vbInformation, "Oh dear..."
End Sub

The code assumes you are using Sheet1 for your data, change it if this is not correct.

When you run it you will be prompted to enter the ID Number without the periods.

The sub then strips out the periods from the data and changes the string to a real number.

It then compares the number to the entered one to find the date.

Paul!, thanks for your time. Really.
I'll try the code.
Let me as you a question: shall I be able to enter the 24K ID's all at once?
Thanks again,

Nishant, I'll try that out.
It's true that LOOKUP looks for the nearest value, too. I did not know that.
Regards, thanks a lot for your time.

Yes, you're right. I had not thought about that.
Sorry.
