Default How to overcome LOOKUP function problems?

Hello,
I am trying to match data from 2 worksheets using LOOKUP functions. I have
arranged the data in ascending order. Here is my problem:
Entry 1, 2, 3 shown up as 'n/a#' which is fine because the are supposed to
be 'no match'.
Entry 7, 8 , 9 are supposed to show 'no match' but returned with the data
in entry 6.
Which means LOOKUP function isn't working for me. I tried VLOOKUP, it just
picks up the first avaliable data in the worksheet. But I need to last
available data. That is no good to me either. I thought about incorporating
'IF' funcation with the 'VLOOKUP' function to get the results I want.
Unfortunately, I am not that good with Excel.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
Wendy
