Hello,
I have an excel data formatting gymnastics question.
So say I have a long list of US counties with associated state names.
Then I have a list of each US state with the corresponding employment rate.
How can I take my big long list of every US county in excel and have the column to the right show the employment rate that corresponds to each county.
Essentially I would be matching state employment rate to the name of the state. Sorry, this is challenging for me to articulate!
For example:
I have a list that reads
California - 68%
Wyoming - 56%
I have another list that reads
Blue County, California
Red County, California
Green County, Wyoming
Purple County, Wyoming
Yellow County, California
I want to make it so it will combine to read
Blue County, California - 68%
Red County, California - 68%
Green County, Wyoming - 56%
Purple County, Wyoming - 56%
Yellow County, California - 68%
How can I do this? What command would this even be called in excel?
Thank you!
