First, thank you for the help in solving this problem. It's pretty simple but I'm just not getting it.
In excel, I have 2 tabs. In the first tab, I have rows of personel data (job title, country of business, Industry, etc.)
In the second tab, I have a column of prohibited titles. These are titles that don't match the criteria we want.
I'd like to create a formula that checks the rows in tab 1 against the prohibited titles in tab 2. If the data matches, I'd like it to return 'N' in column A, which signals that we should remove that row of data. Title information is found in row F on tab 1.
My various countif functions aren't working and I'm not sure why.
Various countif formulas, like
=COUNTIF(F:F,"'Bad Titles!'A:A")
Produces N for all titles we want to disregard
