Hey all,

I'm not entirely sure if this is a VBA question or a macro or formula I can use. But here's what I'm trying to do.

I have two files, we'll call them File 1 and File 2.

In File One, there are 3 Columns:

ID, Name, Title IDs

ID and Name have one entry in their respective cells. Title IDs may have multiple IDs separated by commas (0013,0014,0015, etc)

Example:

IDNameTitle IDs
01John Smith0012,0034,0090
02Jane Doe0012,0078,0090,0100

In File Two, there are two columns:

Title ID, Title Name

Each column in File Two have one Entry.

Example:

Title IDTitle Name
0012Name 1
0034Name 2
0078Name 3
0090Name 4
0100Name 5

What I'm trying to do is take those two files, and combine them into one new file where it populates the IDs from File One and matches them to the respective Title IDs of File Two in individual cells.

Example:

IDTitle ID
010012
020012
010034
020078
010090
020090
020100

I hope what I'm trying to convey is making sense - right now splitting the Title IDs in File One is not an option, so ideally I need to create a new file for it.

Any help and insight would be appreciated, thank you!
 

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
I'm unsure what File Two has to do with it? From what you describe that final result is obtainable from File One only.
For example, if you have the required functions, isn't this doing what you asked?

VBA Code:
Sub string_er()
       Dim store() As String
       Dim k, j As Integer
       Dim lr As Long
       Dim wk1, wk2 As Worksheet
       Dim number As String
       Set wk1 = Sheets("sheet23") 'input sheet name
       Set wk2 = Sheets("sheet24") ' ouput sheet name
       lr = wk1.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
        For k = 2 To lr
            store = Split(wk1.Range("C" & k), ",")
                number = wk1.Range("A" & k)
                For j = 0 To UBound(store)
                        wk2.Range("B:B").NumberFormat = "@"
                        wk2.Cells(Rows.Count, 2).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = store(j)
                        wk2.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0) = number
                Next j
        Next k
End Sub
