Default VLOOKUP + IF ?

Does anyone know how to use Vlookup and If function together?

So if A contains a certain word, it will pull out the category from another category table (C=categorize, D= the word)

If A contains word "CPC", then I would like to have it categorized as "Shipping" next to the word "CPC".

CPC l Shipping
Pen l Office supplies

Seems pretty basic but can't figure out how.
Thanks in advance!

try:
=INDEX(Sheet2!C:C,MATCH(A2,Sheet2!$D$1:$D$100,0))

In the newer version you also could use:
=XLOOKUP(A2,Sheet2!$D$1:$D$100,Sheet2!$C$1:$C$100, "",0)
