I have an event having 3 errors..
I have a regular expression written to capture the error as "ERROR".
And now i have a lookup file and I input the ERROR value and output Comments for the respective error.
I do not have issues when there is just one value for ERROR field in one event(i.e., if there is only one error in a event)
But when there are more than one error,then i get the result as below.
Kindly help..

Expand ERROR values before lookup command.
index= |(regular expression to catch the error from the logs as ERROR) | mvexpand ERROR | lookup abc.csv ERROR output Comments |stats count by Comments

What you are describing is not possible unless you have a Lookup Definition with some extra settings in it. It is pointless to continue without you spelling out everything including at least 2 lines of your Lookup File and your search SPL and your Lookup Definition.

index=your_index
|(regular expression to catch the error from the logs as ERROR)
| stats count by ERROR
| lookup abc.csv ERROR output Comments
I see, this query excludes same ERROR
How about this?
In your last comment, |stats count by Comments
This result is following:
Comments count
abc 3
bcd 1
....
This result is not your first expect result.
Which do you want?
