Can you elaborate more about what you need to accomplish?
Based on what you said there I suggest now
vlookup(a1,YourSource!A1:C10,2,false)
--
Click yes if helped
Greatly appreciated

I need to lookup by Job # and show the adjacent cells in the row. But the
information is already in numerical order by Item # and needs to stay that
way.
