Default Lookup function in Excel

When using the lookup function in Excel 2003, it would be extremely helpful
to have an error appear if the looked up item does not appear in the list.
Example: If I have a small list of students in list A and I'm trying to look
up the corresponding teacher in list B, it returns a teacher for every
student in list A, even if that student is not in list B, and therefore, it
is the wrong information. I would rather have it display an error message,
so that I know that something is missing.
