The result will look something like this:įinally, copy and paste the formula to pull emails for the rest of the column. Here, the Email field is the third column. Type the number of columns your field is from the Unique ID, where the Unique ID is 1. This identifies which column contains the information you want from Spreadsheet 2. For example, if 555123123 is duplicated in the table_array, where Student is the email in one row and Student in the other, Excel will choose one of the emails for you. Note: Make sure each Unique ID is listed only once in the table_array (on the second spreadsheet) so that vLookup retrieves the correct value. In this example, Excel looks up Campus ID 555123123 in the first highlighted column of Spreadsheet 2. In Spreadsheet 2 highlight the table containing the info you want, starting with the Unique ID.
