Cell Population based on a Table
You do need a reference table with col States & col Area
Then you can search that table using VLOOKUP

How can I populate a cell based on "various values" of another cell?
Column A contains the 2-Character Abbreviations for all the States
(United States that is). I would like to populate Column B with the
"Area" that the state is in based on my predetermined mapping.
In example: MA, NJ, NY are in the East Area, VA, MD, NC, SC are in the
MidAtlantic Area, IL, ND, SD, IW are in the MidWest Area, TX, FL, LA
are in the South Area, etc
Can a formula do this or does it need a Macro. I would think that I
would need to build a reference table for the "States to Area"
mapping/relationship.
