Hello,

Is it possible to do a lookup of a portion of a word within a certain range
of cells, then give the value of the cell next to the cells found?

In column A Cells A1:A5, I have a series of five 3 letter names

abc
def
ghi
jkl
mno


In column D (cells D1:D100), I have a long range of data (words) that might
include the 3 letter words, and in column E its corresponding value

Column D Column E

sfert def fgat 56
jklb bbgd ssh 65
adh ghi sf 87
hhsyukl sgh 71
hhsytr kksy 43
mnogh ffsr 12
etc.... etc....


I would like to show in column B (Cells B1:B5) a formula that would give me
the value in column E coresponding to where the 3 letter word was found in
column D (can only be max of one possibility)

Col A Col B

abc #N/A
def 56
ghi 87
jkl 65
mno 12


I have tried the following array formula in cell B1, but the results gives
me #Value

{=SUM((FIND(A1,$D$1:$D$100)0)*($E$1:$E$100))}

Can you please help?

Thanks in advance.

André
