Default Vlookup Function with Multiple Reference Columns

I guess it's only fitting that I reply to a post from Biff!

Try this:

=SUMIF(Sheet1!A2:C4,A1,Sheet1!D2:F4)

I posted a question a few days ago, but didn't get an answer so let me give
more detail. I am trying to do a Vlookup in B1 in Worksheet 2 that
references a table in worksheet 1. The reference value though can be
found
in either column A, B or C and the results (output) will be three columns
away from the reference column of the table. The Vlookup function looks
at
the most left column of the table (so column A). How do I get the
function
to look in A, B, C and return a value three columns over from the column
it
found the reference value.

Your help is greatly appreciated.
