Combining two lists
Dear Forum Users, I have a question regarding fusing two lists of information in to one, i color coded them so it is clear where the information is pulled from. How do i go about this? ...

Please show how you want this data to look after the lists are fused into one.

Is this Better? The two upper Rows of information is the available info. The third row is how I need it.

For the 1st two cells of the third row, use the formula =A2:B2, assuming your first list has values in row 2. For the 3rd cell of the third row, you can use the formula =XLOOKUP(B10,B5,A5).Assuming your lists each have 5 rows, the formulas might be something like =$A$2:$B$6 (typed in A20), and =XLOOKUP(B20,$B$12:$B$16,$A$12:$A$16). This assumes the 1st list goes from row 2-6 and 2nd list goes from row 12-16.

I got it to work. But I'm still running into some problems.
The lookup values do not fully match.
For example:
Search: BUHLMANN Netherlands BV.
Search matrix: BUHLMANN Netherlands B.V.
= No match because of slight name difference
How do I fix this? I already experimented with the -1 and 1, but didn't give satisfactory results
Kind regards,
Menne
