Default Lookup Based on 4 values

Hello,

I have never used the more advanced features of excel, usually
just the common math operations. However I need to do a complex lookup
and I need all the help I can get.

I have one worksheet populated with a database. The database looks like
the following.

bk ch ver nt id
1 1 1 0 1
1 1 1 1 2
1 1 1 2 3
1 1 1 3 4
1 1 1 4 5
1 1 1 5 6
1 1 2 0 7
1 1 2 1 8
1 1 2 2 9


I want to do a lookup that returns the value in the ID cell when the
user types in the previous 4 values in 4 seperate cells.

What I mean is, the user will be asked to input data into 4 cells. If
the user types:

1 1 2 1 --- 8 will be returned in a fifth cell.

This kind of input should work for every row in the worksheet. This way
a user can type:

1 1 2 1 get 8 (all on the same row) then go to the
next row and type
1 1 1 4 get 5 then next row (all on the same row)
etc...

I want it so that the data is in one worksheet and the lookup is in
another blank worksheet. blank so that the user can populate it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Joe
