Find and Replace, but return all matches?

Hi all,

I am trying to find a way to see if a column contains a value, return all the corresponding values from another column?

 

My current workflow (also attached)...:

 

For each Combo, find replace only returns one account:

How can I make it return all accounts that correspond to the Combo? I.e. return both 82463 and 82486 for AP, and 12345 and 23456 for HA?

Hi @lmanda 

 

In your scenario, you can use a join tool instead.

Find and replace will always only return the first match.

 

Hope this helps : )
