If you have a table with the suburbs and matching map numbers you could use
the VLOOKUP Function.

Assume on sheet2 you have column A with suburbs, column B with matching
numbers.

On sheet1 you have suburbs names in Colimn A.

In B1 enter a VLOOKUP formula

=VLOOKUP(A1,SHEET2!$A$1:$B$200,2,FALSE)

I want to automatically read a column of suburb names and add a column of
matching street directory map numbers. I have to do this monthly on several
