How to return more than one value with multiple serach values with vlookup

Hi,

I have two columns ID and C. Based on a vlooup formula in C with the search value in ID and need to show the value in C.

My Question here is when I need to show multiple values based on multiple IDs. Example: If ID1=Result1 ID2=Result2 and ID3=Result3 and in ID column I write 1 2 or something like this and i want to show Result1 and Result2 in column C.

Note: The ID and C values are based in another Sheet.

Thank you

Hi @Andre Ramos

I hope you're well and safe!

Not sure I follow!

You can look up each part separately and then add them together with something like +" - "+.

Make sense?

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Best,

Hello Andrée,

Yes something like that, can you show me an example of that formula?

Here's an advanced example.

=IF(JOIN(DISTINCT(COLLECT([Column Name 1]:[Column Name 1], [Parent Row]:[Parent Row], [Child Row]@row))) <> "", PARENT() + "Test" + "-" + [Column Name 2]@row + "-" + INDEX([Column Name 1]:[Column Name 1], MATCH([Child Row]@row, [Parent Row]:[Parent Row], 0)))

Make sense?

Yes, but in your example you do it for the rows and columns in the same sheet and i need to pull the ID and C data from other sheet.

Here's another example.

=IFERROR((INDEX(COLLECT(Help@row, [Column Name 1]@row, >0, VLOOKUP([Column Name 2]@row, {Pricing Example}, 2, 0), VLOOKUP([Column Name 2]@row, {Pricing Example}, 2, 0)), 1)), "") + CHAR(10) + IF([Column Name 2]@row = "", "", [Column Name 2]@row + " " + "(Example Text " + SpecificCell$26 + " " + [PriceExample 2]@row + ")")

Better?

Sorry but I couldn't understand this advanced formulas, I've started working with smartsheet just in a couple weeks. Can you please explain me step by step what this formulas are doing?

And please give me examples with my real context problem to an easier understanding.

Sheet 1:

I have ID's and some names in column C (sensitive data hided). This is where the central information are localized.

Sheet 2:

I want to write multiple ID's in a cell and this ID values appear in the column C. Imagine this scenario.

Sheet1:

Columns - ID C

Cell 1 - 18 name1

Cell 2 - 19 name2

Cell 3 - 20 name3

I want in sheet2 something like this:

Columns - ID C

(Same cell)18 19 20 name1 name2 name3

Thank You.
