Default Formula to check presence of value between sheets

Hi guys,

I need some help to figure out the formula to be used on an inventory sheet.

I need to check if a certain value (text/numeric combo, eg. "POLP1003") appears in a specifici column on several different sheets and then to return a value of "No data" if the value does not appear at all.

The pseudo-formula I have so far is:

=IF(OR('Active Service'!C:C=A6; Spare!A:A=A6; 'In Repair'!A:A=A6; Retired!A:A=A6),,"No data")

(Where A6 is the cell containing the item name I am searching for)

eg. A6 = "POLP1003" I want to check for that value in Column C in one sheet, Column A in the next worksheet, Column A in the third worksheet and finally Column A in the fourth worksheet. If that value does not appear in any of the worksheets, I need, "No data".

Thanks.
