Sorry 'bout that. Somehow it got send too early.
Here is my table representing A = Pay Period Week, B = Sat date of week begin.
If I manually enter any date, e.g., 4/8/10, in I need the lookup to produce
the A3, because 4/8 is in that week. 4/10 to produce A4, 4/16 to produce A5,
etc.
Something like if = B3 but <b4, then A3.

row A B
3 2010082 4/3/10
4 2010091 4/10/10
5 2010092 4/17/10
6 2010101 4/24/10
7 2010102 5/1/10
8 2010111 5/8/10

Thanks,

Steve

First, if you want to use VLOOKUP, put the dates in column A and the pay period
week in column B. Then, use the TRUE option for "range_lookup" in the VLOOKUP
formula. See the help file for details.

If you can't change the order of the columns to fit the requirements of VLOOKUP,
try this (with your date in D8):

=INDEX(A3:A8,MATCH(D8,B3:B8,1))

Hi Steve

Try
with the lookupdate in c3

=LOOKUP(C3,B3:B8,A3:A8)
