Default lookup

I want to create a lookup that will show a location and its availability. I
currently have a vlookup where you type in the file number and it will show
you the location. I want to also have a field that shows if the file is in or
not, and if that file is being pulled, you can annotate so. I know this is
not possible in vlookup. What are your suggestions?

Default lookup

This may give you what you want:
=address(index(range,match(criteria,match,0)))
This show the cell address...

Post back if you have more questions.
