Lookup Formula

I'm not sure if this would be a look up formula, but is there a formula where
I can type in a number in one cell and in the cell next to it, it will pop up
a description that i've written in another cell connected to that number on
another sheet?

EXCEL 2007

Please refer to:-

http://www.pierrefondes.com/

Item number 93.

In Sheet1 in cells A2 to A6 entry of any one of these numbers:-

200 / 400 / 500 / 600

- will return, respectively, any one of:-

60 / 10 / 10 / 20

- in cells B2 to B6.

The, "conversion table" is found on Sheet2.

Just amend the Workbook to suit your requirements.

If my comments have helped please hit Yes.

Thanks.

Hi Emily

Supposing that your entries are on Sheet2 with a number in column A and
a description alongside that number in column B.

On sheet1, you enter a number in cell A2, then paste this formula in B2
=IF(A2="","",VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet2!A:B,2,0)
Copy down as required
