Default reverse mapping for LOOKUP table?

My source of information has been these newsgroups and other forums.
One can learn quite a bit by watching others and asking questions.

Note that using...

SEARCH(" "&D2&","," "&B2:B4&",")

....instead of...

SEARCH(D2,B2:B4)

....ensures that SEARCH will find/match the correct value. For example,
if the value you're looking for is 8926, and A2:B4 contains the
following...

52177 9561
62532.01 89265
726589 90026, 8926

....the first one would match B4, whereas the second one would
incorrectly match B3.

Hope this helps!

Hi Domenic,

Any where I can find more information regarding your rather exotic usage of
'&' character in SEARCH(" "&D2&","," "&B2:B4&",")?

many thanks.
