    Potential combination of LookUp and DeDupe to create multiple values in a single cell

    Is it possible to look up a cell in one tab against another, find multiple instances of the number, then using a different column pick out unique value and combine the unique values into a cell on the original tab?

    Hopefully the below helps clarify.

    Table 1 contains the reference number i want to look up:

    Reference Value
    1
    2
    3
    4

    Table 2 contains the values i need for my final table against the reference number i am looking up. A reference can have multiple values

    Reference Value
    1 Car
    2 Car
    3 Car
    4 Car
    1 Car
    1 Bus
    1 Train
    4 Bus

    Table 3 shows the end result. For each reference number the values are merged into one cell allowing one line for each reference.

    Reference Result
    1 Car;Bus; Train
    2 Car
    3 Car
    4 Car;Bus

    Hopefully someone has done something similar to this before. If i need to provide any further clarity, please let me know.
