Hi Maggie

by HELP i meant the help in Excel - depending on your version either type
VLOOKUP into the paperclip office assistant or the "ask a question box" top
right of the screen and press enter.

by POST i meant send us another message after you've checked out help to see
if the VLOOKUP is the type of thing you mean or not. If it doesn't seem to
be what you want, maybe try explaining what you're after in another way. -
the thing i'm not sure about is do you want to type
"Bellsouth" and have the cell next to it populate with
"Telephone (result) code 85000"
or do you want to type
Bellsouth
and have the cell you typed it into change to
Telephone (result) code 85000

Hello JulieD,
I have used VLOOKUP before however, I am unfamilliar with this aspect of
it.
I am new to this so I am really looking for the answer. Once I have it I
can
build off of it. Where is the help and post function?

I have two text fields that i would like to make equal to each other and
any
time I type this word I would like it to be able to return a number
associated with the text field. Bellsouth=Telephone (result) code 85000
