Default Looking up worksheets for values

I have two worksheetsa with information that is the same but the text
is same
foe example
worksheet 1 has a column of countries e.g United Kingdom
Worksheet 2 has a column of countries abbreviations e.g UK (aswell as
other info e.g population, size etc)
and i have worksheet 3 which has two rows e.g United Kingdom and
UK...im using this as a translation table to find UK from United
Kingdom in 1st worksheet
can anyone help me...i wana create a macro to loop through the
countries column in worksheet 1, search through the translation table
(worksheet3) to get the abbreviation and then search worksheet 2 for
this to copy some info from that row back into worksheet1....if any of
this makes sense!!
