KevinUK laid this down on his screen :
I got some brilliant help last year from people on this Group, so I thought I
might try my luck again.

My research involves analysing a third-party database of words and phrases. I
have a workbook containing 13 worksheets. The first one contains a list of
20,000+ line numbers (sequential but with some numbers missing) with a word
and a frequency count for each line number: three columns in total. The other
twelve worksheets contain items from the database, analysed into 12
categories. The common field across all 13 worksheets is the line number.

I need to add the appropriate frequency count (from the first worksheet)in a
new column, to each of the line numbers in each of the 12 worksheets. I have
tried to Google a solution but have not found one that corresponds to my
particular problem. It seems that a combination of INDEX and MATCH might be
the basis of the solution, but I do not understand how to apply them.

Any help would be gratefully received. Best regards,
Kevin

Have a look at the VLOOKUP() function. It should do what you want.
