Hello,
Is there a way to look in multiple columns for a value using xlookup?

Example:
Worksheet 1
AB
Unique_IDReturn_Value (xlookup formulat goes in this column)
abc123orange
def123apple


Worksheet 2
ABC
Unique_ID_1Unique_ID_2Value
abc123efg345orange
cde123def123apple
bc3123lmn999grapes


In worksheet 1, I would like to find the unique ID in column A in worksheet 2 columns A or B and return the value in worksheet 2 column C
So,
lookup 'abc123' in columns A and B of worksheet 2 and return Orange
lookup 'def123' in columns A and B of worksheet 2 and return apple

Thank you for your consideration
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.
How about
Excel Formula:
=XLOOKUP(A2,Sheet2!$A$2:$A$100,Sheet2!$C$2:$C$100,XLOOKUP(A2,Sheet2!$B$2:$B$100,Sheet2!$C$2:$C$100,""))
