INDEX/MATCH find some but not all. Mixed numbers and letters in MATCH fields
Any ideas why I'm getting no results for 305WI001 and 209WI007?
Here is my formula:
=INDEX({DQDs in Review Doc Group}, MATCH([DQD No.]@row, {DQDs in Review DQD No.}))
It seems the DQD No. with a "WI" returns no results but the rest do.
I've checked my source data and there is a Document Group designated for both 305WI001 and 209WI007.
Both sheet columns are formatted the same in the two sheets. ("Text/Number" for DQD No. and "Multi-Select" for Document Group)

Hi @Pam Grant
Try adding a zero at the end of your Match function - this will tell it that your list in the other sheet is not in any order:
=INDEX({DQDs in Review Doc Group}, MATCH([DQD No.]@row, {DQDs in Review DQD No.}, 0))
Let me know if that made a difference!
Cheers,
Genevieve

Thank you @Genevieve P. ! This completely resolved my problem!
Thank you for telling me WHY to add the ",0" at the end of my formula!
