search for match

i have a list of merchandise on a week 1 tab, and a week 2 tab, etc through
week 26. there are two columns of data: A=SKU, B=Description
I need to find the Descriiption by looking for a sku match in column A on
any of the 1-26 tabs (item may not be on tab 1 becuse it doesn't arrive until
week 2 and conversely item could be on tab 24 but fall off 25 because we
don't sell it any more.)

So assume i want to populate a report that column A is the SKU, column b is
the Description.
Search column A's on week's 1-26 and return the item name which is in column
B?
is that clear?
thanks in advance for any help.

i have a list of merchandise on a week 1 tab,
and a week 2 tab, etc through week 26.

Are those the *exact* sheet names? Week 1, Week 2, Week 3...etc. ?
