Lookup Table Help

Hi All, I'm trying to do a relatively simple lookup to fill in a table using another master table with all of the possible combinations.

 

I have a master table with data that looks like this (~1,000,000 records, 3 fields)

 

Item 1Item 2Result
000100015
000100027
000100033
etc.etc.etc.
   

 

And I'm trying to fill in a table that looks like this (30x200). I need it to lookup each one and fill in the cell with the result (then export to a csv, Excel, etc.), but can't get it to work.

Hi @jwallen23 

 

I think this is what you want, and this should work as a logic with no more steps if you have no duplicate cells:

I'm transposing the master table so I can join it onto the other table, putting the result in the correct column, and then cross tabbing it back.
