Hello, all. I don't seem to be able to find this specific variant of a value-matching formula.

I'm trying to output the list in column "ValueIsPresentInA-B-C", where it checks all of the other columns for values that must be present in each each of the others and then populates the column.

The problem I'm trying to solve would use either of numbers or text.

Any ideas on how this might work? Thank you for considering this problem.

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 700, align: left"]

[TD]LIST-A[/TD]
[TD]LIST-B[/TD]
[TD]LIST-C[/TD]

If the order is not important then this one will do the trick:

Hello, Aryatect! I'm sorry for replying a few hours after your reply. I was working last night and was very tired and fell asleep.

I hadn't thought about it, but yes the order is helpful and the solution works superbly. I'm able to collate a large list this way.

Thank you for taking your time to help me find this solution. I appreciate it very much. Enjoy the day.
