I have two columns with text data.
All I want to do is search the first column “J” for a specific string and return the value of the same row on column “H”.
I know all I need to do is find the cell index in column J and return the offset value for column H.
What is the syntax for this?
You need an Index and Match combination. Here’s a couple of links:
