Use MATCH() to find the relative position of your row in the table.
Then follow Chip Pearson's instructions in the section

Returning A Row Or Column From A Table

Thank you for the reply Niek, for some reason this still didn't
work...all the data that the MATCH and OFFSET comand that was in the
cpearson link you provided only returned me with results of "1" or "0"
and the data that was in one of the spreadsheets and not the other
wasn't merged in.
