    Vlookup maybe, not sure, need help!

    Hi all,

    Been a long time since I have been on here, really hoping someone can help me out.

    See the attached.

    The WWN values in Column E of sheet data1 - I need, in column F, the corresponding alias as shown in column A in sheet data2.

    So, cell E2 on sheet data1 matches the alias in cell A2 in sheet data2. I need a formula that looks at all the WWNs in "data1" and then matches them to the alias in "data2", and returns the matching value into column f in data1.

    Hope that makes sense

    this should do it but it looks like it only returns one match.
    =INDEX(data2!$A$2:$A$9,MATCH(data1!E2,data2!$B$2:$B$9,0))

    And if you need it to return a message indicating the WWN isn't in data2 then this would work.
    =IFERROR(INDEX(data2!$A$2:$A$9,MATCH(data1!E2,data2!$B$2:$B$9,0)),"not present in data2")
