I have a list of music numbers for our choir in calc. Each number is
identified by a number in col A, and sometimes a sub-number or
letter in col B. Something like:
296 title1 Composer Arr. text publisher
297 a title2 C2
297 b title3 C3
298 1 title4 C1
298 2 title5 C3 A B xx
299 title6 C2
This is in the lab Mainlist. In another tab (performed) I just want
to reference number and subnumber, and get the title, composer,
arranger, etc. from the Main list. How can I lookup 2 values set in
Performed E1 and F1 in the main list?
Insert an extra column - I'll call it "C" - between the subnumbers
and the titles. In Cn, enter
=An&Bn
This will concatenate the values in the first two columns, to give
"297a", "2982", etc. You can hide that column if you prefer, so it
does not need to display or print.
To harvest the title, use:
=VLOOKUP(E1&F1;Mainlist.C1:H999;2;0)
To harvest the composer:
=VLOOKUP(E1&F1;Mainlist.C1:H999;3;0)
and so on .
I trust this helps.
