excel - Finding if a value is located in a range of cells in a corresponding column, to a row with the same value as a given cell in a given row -


given column contains directory paths, , column b contains actions on these paths; i'd resultant cell contain specific string if specific string located in column b (per column a).

granted can sort column, believe can use offset, know how locate ending index of cells can search range returned offset.

for example:

path                operation /share/admins       accessed /share/admins       removed /share/admins       added /share/admins       changed /share/network      accessed /shared/projects    accessed 

in case, want search path unique value (in case /share/admins, /share/network, , /shared/projects), , given range in path, i'd search corresponding operation, , if operation matches removed, added, changed exists, i'd cell value write; , if values aren't found, "read".

in case, expect column (with header result) read:

path                operation       result /share/admins       accessed        write /share/admins       removed         write /share/admins       added           write /share/admins       changed         write /share/network      accessed        read /shared/projects    accessed        read 

pardon seo: using compare varonis datadvantage reports 01.a.01 (user access logs) 04.j.01 (effective user permissions report). unfortunately, datadvantage doesn't feel need write reports correlate user activity records , file system permissions records.

you can use sumproduct. see screenshot.

=if(sumproduct((a:a=a1)*((b:b="removed")+(b:b="added")+(b:b="changed"))),"write","read") 

enter image description here

or in shorter form:

=if(sumproduct((a:a=a1)*(b:b={"removed","added","changed"})),"write","read")
