Depending on how your data is laid out, you might be able to use VLOOKUP for this - the sought item needs to be in the leftmost column of the table for this to work. If this is not the case, then you can use an INDEX/MATCH combination, in which case the column in which you are looking for a match can be anywhere. Post back some more details on how your data is arranged and exactly what you want returned if you need any further assistance. Hope this helps.
