Hi everyone,
my problem is as follows:

I have a spreadshett with multiple tabs. Each tab breaks down the
information in the main data spreadsheet.
I want to lookup a value on the right (and sometimes left) of a reference in
an array. I know how to use vlookup but the problem is that I don't know how
to make a function clever enough to recognise my reference and pickup from an
array the value on its right or left.

I hope I have been clear enough, I would greatly appreciate any comments.

Thanks
