Chuck

Thank you for your time and patients. I tried your suggestion from this
morning. It only work the first part of the formula.

Here is what I entered
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A16,Sheet2!$A$2:$B$20882,2,FALSE) ),"invalid
number,"&VLOOKUP(LEFT(A16,4),$A$2:$C$20882,2,FALSE ),VLOOKU
P(A16,Sheet2!$A$2:$B$20882,2,FALSE))

Got a return value of #N/A when I did not get a match on the 8 digit.
It worked when I got a match.

Was I suppose to space the last letter of Vlookup at the last Vlookup
argument. I followed your example. It did the same without the same.

Again Thank your assistance Please don't stop.
Unless it can not be done.
