I guess you need to fill data into the 5 columns to the right of each ID. Not sure why INDEX/MATCH or similar doesn't work - formula will be populate within the column automatically and with proper designed formula you only need to drag it to the right to fill other columns.

INDEX/MATCH does work, but I have to do it 5 times for each column, is there are way of doing this only once?

Afraid I didn't catch, copy/paste formula to another 5 columns is just few seconds second.
I assume formula is like
=INDEX(Table1[[Forename]:[Zip Code]], MATCH(Table2[@[MemberNo]:[MemberNo]],Table1[[MemberNo]:[MemberNo]],0), COLUMN()-COLUMN(Table2[[#Headers],[MemberNo]]) )another columns are empty at the beginning, then with copy/paste they shall be filled (don't drag)
