Default How to lookup based in the first 3 characters of a cell

Hi all,

I would like to know how I can perform a lookup formula to lookup a
column based on the first three characters of a cell.

i.e. Column A - AA1-0001, AB2-0002, etc

I would like to perform a lookup on the first three character ie.e AA1
or AB2 etc.

Thanks in advanced.
