If I have a master list of 800 accounts and a smaller list of 200 accounts,
how would I go about extracting the data from Spreadsheet A to Spreadsheet B
for just those 200 accounts? Spreadsheet A containing detailed account
information, Spreadsheet B containing just Account Names. Both spreadsheets
with a common field, quot;Account Name.quot;

Thanks

If Account names are in leftmost column (not necessarily A), use VLOOKUP

You could use VLOOKUP to get the info you want.

Start the Advanced Filter on Sheet B
Reference the master list as the List range.
For the Criteria range, select the small list, including the heading.
Select a cell on Sheet B as the Copy to range.
