Hey guys, I am trying to make a point of sales software system using Excel and it requires a search-able customer database.
The business does buys and loans, both of which require the customer's ID information. I want to be able to input a customers name and have it bring up their ID number and ID type (pulled from the customers tab).
I have gotten this figured out using VLOOKUP, but my problem is that if there are two "Smith, John" in the database, it will automatically just use the first in the list and not give any indication that another is available.
Is there any way to it to indicate when this happens, or offer an alternate method of inputting the customers info?
