HELLO EVERY BODY

I’d like to complete vba formula with the expected result at attach file , i am sorry for my bad english language .

vba code

'Name the UDF and declare arguments and data types
Function Lookup_concat(Search_string As String, _
Search_in_col As Range, Return_val_col As Range)

'Dimension variables and declare data types
Dim i As Long, Result As String
Dim Search_strings, Value As Variant

'Split string using a delimiting character and return an array of values
Search_strings = Split(Search_string, ";")

'Iterate through values in array
For Each Value In Search_strings

'Iterate through from 1 to the number of cells in Search_in_col
For i = 1 To Search_in_col.Count

'Check if cell value is equal to value in variable Value
If Search_in_col.Cells(i, 1) = Value Then

'Save the corresponding return value to variable result
Result = Result & "," & Return_val_col.Cells(i, 1).Value
End If

'Continue with next number
Next i

'Continue with next value
Next Value

'Return values saved to result to worksheet
Lookup_concat = Trim(Result)

End Function


note
vba code is not mine


thank u

Excel Facts

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.
Try this variant:
VBA Code:
Function Lookup_concat(Search_string As String, Search_in_col As Range, Return_val_col As Range)
'Dimension variables and declare data types
Dim i As Long, Result As String
Dim Search_strings, Value As Variant
Dim ServerS, IApp()

'Split string using a delimiting character and return an array of values
Search_strings = Split(Search_string, ";")
ReDim IApp(1 To Return_val_col.Rows.Count)          'List of inserted Apps
'Iterate through values in array
For Each Value In Search_strings
'Iterate through from 1 to the number of cells in Search_in_col
    For i = 1 To Search_in_col.Count
        If Search_in_col.Cells(i, 1).Value <> "" Then
            ServerS = Split(Search_in_col.Cells(i, 1).Value, ",", , vbTextCompare)
            If Not IsError(Application.Match(Value, ServerS, False)) Then
                If IsError(Application.Match(Return_val_col.Cells(i, 1).Value, IApp, False)) Then
                    'Save the corresponding return value to variable result
                    Result = Result & "," & Return_val_col.Cells(i, 1).Value
                    IApp(i) = Return_val_col.Cells(i, 1).Value
                End If
            End If
        End If
    Next i
Next Value
'Return values saved to result to worksheet
Lookup_concat = Trim(Mid(Result, 2))
End Function

Another way

VBA Code:
Function Lookup_concat(Search_string As String, Search_in_col As Range, Return_val_col As Range) As String
  Dim d As Object, RX As Object
  Dim a As Variant, b As Variant
  Dim i As Long
 
  a = Search_in_col.Value
  b = Return_val_col.Value
  Set d = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
  Set RX = CreateObject("VBScript.RegExp")
  RX.Pattern = "\b(" & Replace(Search_string, ";", "|") & ")\b"
  For i = 1 To UBound(a)
    If RX.Test(a(i, 1)) Then d(b(i, 1)) = 1
  Next i
  If d.Count > 0 Then Lookup_concat = Join(d.Keys(), ",")
End Function

Sheet1
Cell Formulas
RangeFormula
C20:C21C20=Lookup_concat(B20,Sheet1!$B$3:$B$11,Sheet1!$C$3:$C$11)


If your function formulas and the table are in fact all on Sheet1 then of course you do not need the Sheet1 references in the formula. It would just be
=Lookup_concat(B20,$B$3:$B$11,$C$3:$C$11)
