I have two sets of data is seperate reports. 1 lists number and other info I
need and the other lists Number and date. I added columns B and C from the
sheet with dates and have tried to match data with little luck. I need a
formula for column D that will match the # in column A with Column B and
return the date associated with column B.
ex
1470623 in column A5
1470623 is in column B8
7/13/2009 is in column C8
I want my formula in column D5 to return the date from column C8 7/13/2009
Please help.

Not sure I really understand...

See if this does what you want.

Entered in D2 and copied down:

=IF(COUNTIF(B$2:B$15,A2),INDEX(C$2:C$15,MATCH(A2,B $2:B$15,0)),"")

Format as Date

In D5 enter:

=VLOOKUP(A5,B2:C15,2)
and format D5 as a Date.
