Default Place number into Cell Based on Match

This works great but if there is not a match it returns the word FALSE and I
would like it to leave the cell blank in that case.

If I interpret what you want corrently,
in B1
=if(countif(C:C,A1)0,index(E:E,match(A1,C:C,0))
and copy down
is one of your options.

A3 zzzz3333
A4 aaaa4444
A5 bbbb5555

Based on a search to identify items in ColC to see if they matched ColA the
cell location was returned in ColD based on the following formula:
=IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(C1,A:A,0)),"A"&MATCH(C1,A:A,0), "no"). Now I want to take
the $ in ColE and move it to ColB where ColC and ColA match. I need to
repeat this for a lot of items. If you need more info let me know.
