I am trying to find a formula that will look at identical data in once column (such as an accession number), then look at data in the same rows but in a different column, and pull that data out into another column, I am trying to identify the name of the phlebotomist. The first 4 rows are the same patient. The same phlebotomist drew all 4 tubes of blood, but one is "NUR". I need to know that in this example "NUR" is "BROWN, CHARLIE"
The data i look at is extremely large. Here is an example:
I can sort by accession number to lump them all together. I need to formula to look the accession number (A917009168 in the first four rows), use the data "NUR" in row 3, and return the name in either row 1,2 or 4 (since the all are under the same accession number.
I appreciate any help.
