Question

Excel Formula Help

Feb 28, 2014 12:19AM PST

I am a teacher and I have a list that contains EVERY student in my school and their homeroom teacher. I have another list (Truancy List) of students with 10 or more absences but no homeroom teacher. Is there a formula I can use to pull the homeroom teacher for each truant student into my Truancy list? Thanks!
