Hello all,

Need help with an Excel formula. I am working on my team's data right now and in the sheet I have 2 tabs 1) Raw Data 2) Exception. How can I automate a column in the Raw Data to automatically have Yes for an item that is in the other tab Exception? Thanks in advance!

How can you automate Excel?
Press Alt+F11 from Windows Excel to open the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) editor.
Are you just comparing one column to one other column? Can you post some example data?

So in the attached image, I need to look up Column A if it is listed in the exception list from the Exception tab. If it is, Column T in the Raw tab should be Yes

For the future I suggest that you investigate XL2BB for providing sample data & expected results to make it easier for helpers to understand just what you have & where it is and also what you want & where it is to be. Also easy to copy from to test with. :)
If you have trouble with XL2BB review the "XL2BB Icons greyed out" link in the 'Known XL2BB issues' section near the top of theXL2BB Instructions page linked above.

See if adapting this to your ranges does what you want.

I tried downloading but I can't seem to successfully install it. When I extract the downloaded file, it is just an empty folder.
