VLOOKUP-common look up entry with multiple results

[CrimsonPlague29]

Hello...

I need to have the following in a file:
Order Serial #
123 ABC
123 DEF
234 GJH
234 JKI

When I vlook the order number to get the serial #'s into another file I only
get the first instance... eg if I vlook the serial #'s for order 123 I only
get ABC returned.....Is ther a way to get multiple results for common lookup
value...

Thanks

Is the sample you posted what your lookup_table looks like or, does that
show your lookup_values in the first column and the second column is the
result of the formula? Need more *specific* details.

This is the result I need to see the order column is my lookup values and the
serial # is the results.....I'm looking to pull only the info I need from the
master file, there is alot of info that i don't require
