What obvious reason would that be?

A1 B1

MS21044N04 F22NM-440 F22NM-40 MS20365-440A

I want to be able to type any part number in A1 and have it return the
corresponding information in column a of that line in B1.

I have a database of 25 columns and 50,000 lines.

I understand VLOOKUP and HLOOKUP but they don't work for the obvious
reasons.

Thank You
