    help needed to write a vlookup, match or combination of both formula

    Hi there I have the following issue I need some help with

    I have a list in column A sheet4
    A table in Sheet3 B2:C11
    Another table in Sheet2 B2:C11

    I currently have the following formula in S2 "=IF(Q2="","",VLOOKUP(Q2,Sheet2!$B$2:$C$11,2,TRUE))" that work well. Now I need to modify it or re-write it for the below conditions.

    What I am looking to do is write a formula in S2

    I want to lookup a value in L2 against a list in column A sheet4.

    If a match is found then lookup Q2 in the table in sheet3 B2:C11 column C

    If a match is not found then lookup Q2 in table in sheet2 B2:C11 column C

    Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance

    Can you post a spreadsheet. it'd be easier than tryng to reconstruct what you've already done...

    Make sure there is just enough data to demonstrate your need. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are shown, mock them up manually if necessary.

    Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and use the paperclip icon to open the upload window.

    S2=IF(Q2="","",IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(L2,Sheet4!$A$1:$A$27,0)),VLOOKUP($Q2,Table33[[DURATION]:[CODE]],2,1),VLOOKUP($Q2,Table3[[DURATION]:[CODE]],2,1)))
