Default Lookup

I'm a bit confused. If you don't have a column for lot numbers, how is
your table "correlating" lot numbers to material thicknesses?

I want to do a lookup without using the lookup function. Here is the idea:

I have a lookup table correlating Lot Numbers to Material Thickness.
In another sheet I want to enter a lot number into a cell and have it return
the corresponding material thickness to that same cell.
I don't want to have a column on the sheet for lot numbers to lookup using
the VLOOKUP() function.

Since I can't do it with a function, I think it requires some VBA
programming. Very likely, this has come up before. Can someone point me to
a solution?
