Try

=if(countif(g4,$a$1:$a$44),VLOOKUP(G4,'LINES -- DO NOT
TOUCH'!$A$1:$B$44,2,FALSE),0)

Fyi, the ISNA method works perfectly but is not very efficient as the
VLOOKUP function must be calculated each time.
If you have many formulas in your sheet it will slow calculations
dramatically.

Hi,

A very good point, Thanks. It would only eveluate twice if the result of the
first VLOOKUP was FALSE.
