My spreadsheet looks like this
A B C D
1 Car1 BMW Car1 =query(?????)
2 Car2 Mercedes Car3
3 Car3 Porsche Car7
4 Car4 Hyundai
5 Car5 Honda
6 Car6 Ford
7 Car7 Ferrari
I do not want to use vlookup in each column D1, D2, D3. I want to use Query function to show the list in D1:D3 basis criteria in C1:C3
Formula might be
Query (A1:C7; "Select B where A = C1:C3")
and desired result is
A B C D
1 Car1 BMW Car1 BMW
2 Car2 Mercedes Car3 Porsche
3 Car3 Porsche Car7 Ferrari
4 Car4 Hyundai
5 Car5 Honda
6 Car6 Ford
7 Car7 Ferrari
Please tell me what am I doing wrong?
