=IF, If only I knew the answer
 

Hi all,
I'm trying to come up with the correct function to check if the text in cell in an adjacent cell matches a value from a list of possible values. And if it does, return a value from another list of possible values. Does that make Sense????
I tried :=IF(E4=$H$4,G4," ")(E4=$H$5,$G$5," ")(E4=$H$6,$G$6," ")(E4=$H$7,$G$7," ")(E4=$H$8,$G$8," ")(E4=$H$9,$G$9," ")(E4=$H$10,$G$10," ")(E4=$H$11,$G$11," ")(E4=$H$12,$G$12," ")
The attachment is a sample of my table.
Any Help much appreciated.

Hi,

If you could post an example of this but in an Excel file it would be far easier to help you out with this.

try:
=IFERROR(INDEX($G$4:$G$18,MATCH(E4,$H$4:$H$18,0)), "")

for excel versions earlier than 2007:
=IF(ISERROR(MATCH(E4,$H$4:$H$18,0)),"",INDEX($G$4: $G$18,MATCH(E4,$H$4:$H$18,0)))

Yes, but you don't want a bunch of nested IFs, you want VLOOKUP or
HLOOKUP.
