locate data from a chart by inserting data into a cell
Hello,
I have a list of every postcode (column A) in the UK for work in excel 'sheet1'. Each postcode has a rating area A,B or C (column B). In the next work 'sheet 2' i would like to insert a postcode into A1 and for the relevant postcode rating to appear in B1. Could someone please help. Thanks Aaron |

Hi Aaron,
You could use a Vlookup function... in Sheet2 B1 type =VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet1!A:B,2) Hope this helps, Gav.

Hi Aaron
Just in case your postcode list is not alphabetically sorted, you should add the 4th argument of False or 0 to Gav's suggestion =VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet1!A:B,2,0) -- Regards Roger Govier "Gav123" wrote in message ...
