I am trying to figure out how to be able to enter a number from 1 to 43 (i.e.
C1 i type 10)in a column and have the formula in D1 with a condition if the
number in C1 matches the same number in a range name on a different sheet put
what is in the next cell (i.e. I have a chart on another sheet, so in A1 if
have the number 10 and in B1 I have the word "Sam" I want Sam to put put in
D1 where the formulas is ) This must be possible. Need major help

If I understand you correction, you want to input a number in C1. Based on
the value in C1, you want a value to be placed in D1. The chart has numbers
in column A and names in column B.

If this is the case then place the following formula in D1:

=LOOKUP(C1,Chart!A1:A50,Chart!B1:B50)

This formula assumes the name of the worksheet the chart is on to be Chart
and that there are 50 rows of data. Adjust both accordingly.

Hi,

You might want to try a VLOOKUP function, something like this:

=VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet2!$A$1:$B$100,2,0)
and in case a value is not found you can add an error trap to the formula:

=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet2!$A$1:$B$100,2,0)),"N ot
found",VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet2!$A$1:$B$100,2,0))

type what you want to return inside the quotes in case a value is not found,
usually people will either use the double quotes alone "" or 0.

Thank you so much that worked. I am now trying to take the same type of
table, numbers in column A and names in column B on a second sheet. In F5 i
am wanting to reference the result i just used from the Vlookup which is a
name(in column B) and need to put the number in column A. Can maybe you help
with this also.

Thanks ever so much

Hi,

For that you can use a combination of INDEX and MATCH:

=INDEX(Sheet2!$A$1:$A$100,MATCH(F5,Sheet2!$B$1:$B$ 100))
