Default matching values in columns to update prices

Hi,

I have two list of products in the following format:

LIST 1

PROD ID PRICE
0998552 £1.04
0998553 £1.10
0998963 £2.95
0997542 £3.60
0997544 £9.60

LIST 2

PROD ID PRICE
0998963 £3.50
0998552 £1.50
0997544 £9.80
0998553 £1.50
0997542 £3.90


Both lists are in a different order, I need to transpose the prices
from list 2 to another column on list 1 so that the price matches the
PROD ID in each list. Any help greatly appreciated.. Each list
contains approx 400 products.


Thanks in advance for any help!!

Jon

Default matching values in columns to update prices

Hi,

In this case List 1 is in A1 - B6 and list 2 is ni I1 - J6.
Put this in C2 and drag down and it will copy the prices from list2

=VLOOKUP(A2,$I$2:$J$6,2,FALSE)

Thanks for the attempt - although I get the following error when
attempt it:
"Data on the Clipboard is not the same size and shape as the selected
area. Do you want to paste the data anyway?"
