Hi, I have a Input sheet where only the qty changes, there are 6 sections with varying row numbers (between 5 and 50), I can bring the changes to the qty onto the results sheet with index match but it clumps the results together, is there a way of splitting the results up into there sections, I have hopefully provided a sheet showing this.

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.

Hi Peter_SSs
Thanks for the prompt reply, your formula works really well to bring the items from the input page but could it bring all the items and section headers without having to identify each section separately on the results page as some of the sections have 50 items or more which could end with the results spilling over,
It's a much better way than my attempt, could I put the section headers above each set of items and bring them across with the items, I could always hide them, I think I'm asking to much for a gap between sections but could your formula bring all the sections and headers, I'm not averse to adding columns if needed, I will try to adapt it myself but I'm pretty sure you stand a much better chance,
thanks Peter_SSs for your help.

Could you remove the merged cells in column A and do it like this?
