Lookup Formula
 

I have a file with two sheets: Returnable and Not Returnable. I need a
formula on a third sheet that tells me if a part is returnable or not based
on the lists.

Lookup Formula
 

If the part you're looking up is in A2, and your lists are in column B of
each sheet, something like
=IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(A2,'Returnable'!B2:B100,0)),"Re turnable",IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(A2,'Not Returnable'!B2:B100,0)),"Not Returnable","Part not found anywhere")
would work for you.

Assuming the lists are in column A in each worksheet
=IF(ISNA(MATCH(A1,Returnable!A:A,0)),"","Returnabl e")&IF(ISNA(MATCH(A1,'Non
Returnable'!A:A,0)),"","Non Returnable")
where A1 hold the part number on the lookup sheet
Note that is the item does not occur in either list, the cell appears blank

Alternative (might be better)
=IF(COUNTIF(Returnable!A:A,Sheet1!A1),"Returnable" ,IF(COUNTIF('Non
Returnable'!A:A,Sheet1!A1),"Non Returnable", "Who Knows?"))

This formula might work but I always get the "Part Not Found Anywhere". I
changed the ranges to A:A in both cases and still. I also checked the format
of the part #'s in both tables.
