I will try...
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(G1,Sheet2!A:A,1,FALSE)),"","Pick" )

VLOOKUP(G1,Sheet2!A:A,1,FALSE)
takes the value in G1, goes to Col A on Sheet2 and tries to find a match...
if it does it returns the value from Col 1 in the range Sheet2!A:A and
returns the value there (so if you had the range as Sheet2!A:B and 2 instead
of 1, you would have got the value from Col B)
If no match is found you get #N/A error...
ISNA() checks for the return value... if it is TRUE (i.e. you got no
macth), IF returns nothing ("") and returns PICK if a match is found...
instead of PICK you can have the whole VLOOKUP there to get the value back...

Hope I did not confuse you...

This works perfectly but can you tell me why this works so that I can use

Assuming Col G contains the zip code in worksheet1, enter this in the first
available column..
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(G1,Sheet2!A:A,1,FALSE)),"","Pick" )

You can then filter on Pick... to get the addresses you want...

No, the Zip Code is separate from the address.

The fields in Worksheet 1 look like:

FirstName, LastName, Address1, Address2, City, State, Zip, Phone, Specialty

Worksheet 2 only has a Zip Code field.

Is you zip codes in the full addresses? if yes, traditional Vlookup can't
get the result.

Post your formula and a small sample of your data in sheet1 and sheet2

I have a spreadsheet with a worksheet with several thousand physician names,
addresses, etc.

In another worksheet in the same file I have a list of about 200 zip codes.

I need to pull all of the physicians from worksheet 1 that have office
addresses in the zip codes in worksheet 2.

I tried using VLOOKUP but I'm doing something wrong and it's not working.
Can someone tell me if VLOOKUP is the best function to use and how to use it
for this situation?
