Lookup from Multiple Columns
I am trying to write a formula that would return the bold cells in this sheet. It would be like a vlookup or index/match, but with how the data is structured, there has to be multiple columns for the...
Do you know if there's a way to make it so that if I want to add a reference column in table 1, I would be able to without having to add more conditions to the formulas in table 2? Eventually, I will have 50 or 100 reference columns formatted similarly to columns A:C and I don't want to have to formula with 100 conditions in it.
You can try FILTER() with MMULT() where you do not need to enter criteria for each reference cell. See the attached file.
=FILTER($D$3:$H$4,MMULT(--($A$3:$C$4=A12),SEQUENCE(COLUMNS($A$3:$C$4),,,0)))
If you have BYROW() function available to your excel then below would be easier.
=FILTER($D$3:$H$4,BYROW(--($A$3:$C$4=A12),LAMBDA(x,MAX(x))))
