Default Using Vlookup with IF statements

Hello there,

I have tried running a nested IF statement with 15 IF clauses. We all
know that excel accepts upto a maximum of 7. I need a way to work
around this problem.

I am sure there is a VLOOKUP solution to this problem.

Below is the IF statment I am using.

=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("#",D2)),"COUNTRYSTOCK",IF(ISN UMBER(SEARCH("404-
BU",D2)),"PACIFIC",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("404-
VI",D2)),"PACIFIC",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("404-
CA",D2)),"WEST",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("404-
ED",D2)),"WEST",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("404-
SA",D2)),"WEST",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("404-
WI",D2)),"WEST",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("404-
M1",D2)),"CENTRAL",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("404-
M2",D2)),"CENTRAL",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("404-
LO",D2)),"CENTRAL",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("404-
OT",D2)),"EAST",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("404-
MO",D2)),"EAST",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("404-
SH",D2)),"EAST",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("404-
QU",D2)),"EAST",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("404-
MJ",D2)),"EAST",IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("404-
DA",D2)),"ATLANTIC","FALSE"))))))))))))))))


I would appreciate if someone could help me get stated on this.
