Default Lookup and match against separate workbook

I'm trying to do the following with this procedu

1. In the current worksheet, starting at a specific row, cycle
through each each and match with a defined range in a lookup workbook
named "expttl". If the cell value is a match or "" then continue
until it finds a non match. When if finds a nonmatch return the
column value of cell.

2. I'm having difficulty with the Set RngA =
Workbooks("LookupWorkbook").Sheets("LookupWorsheet ").Range line. Any
ideas.

TIA


Function FindColumn() As Long

On Error GoTo Proc_Err

Dim fStart As Boolean
Dim lngHeader As Long
Dim lngX As Long
Dim strCell As String
Dim RngA As Range
Dim wks As Worksheet
Dim res As Variant

fStart = False
lngX = 1

Do Until fStart = True

strCell = Cells(lngHeader, lngX).Value

'If cell is blank assign as date and is ignored
If strCell = "" Then
strCell = "Date"
Else
End If

'Trim spaces on either slide
strCell = RTrim(LTrim(strCell))

'Reference the Export

Set RngA = Workbooks("LookupWorkbook").Sheets("LookupWorsheet ").Range("LookupRange")

res = 0

res = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(strCell, RngA, 0)

If IsError(res) Then
fStart = True
FindVendorStart = lngX
Exit Function
Else
End If

lngX = lngX + 1

Loop


Proc_Exit:
Exit Function

Proc_Err:
Select Case Err.Number
Case 1004
FindVendorStart = lngX
Case Else
Debug.Print Err.Number & " - " & Err.Description
End Select
Resume Proc_Exit

End Function
