Is it possible to have a LOOKUP which can distinguish between lower and
uppercase characters?? even having FALSE it still gives the first it finds,
rather than the one with the right case.

thanks

LOOKUP type formulas aren't case-sensitive. If you have a VLOOKUP like

=VLOOKUP(A1,B1:C10,2,0)

you could replace with this

=INDEX(C1:C10,MATCH(1,--EXACT(A1,B1:B10),0))

which need to be confirmed with CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER

Hello, sorry I didn't got it quite well, I'll try to explain it better this
time my sheet has something like this example:

0 A B C a b c
1 B C D b c d
2 C D E c d e
3 D E F d e f

So what I need is some sort of lookup which is case sensitive where I have
already for example letter "C" and in a cell I type "2" so that means I
should get "E", if I type "3" then i should get "F" and so on... I didn't get
how I should put that into the formula, thanks!
