Default Fill in contents based on another column


Hi,
I am new to excel.
I have the following data:
Zip Chapter
94789
50000

I need the chapter filled in based on the zip. i.e if zip < 10000, fill
in NY chapter, if between 90000 & 95000, fill in SF-bay etc.

Is there a way to define this without using vlookup i.e having the data
in same/another worksheet?

Thanks

Nope. If you have a long list of zips, the absolute best method is vlookup.
What do you have against it? Vlookup can use a named range as the area, and
you can put it on another worksheet, and even hide that sheet if you like.
