How to automatically fill a cell based on another table.l

Hi, I want my spreadsheet do the folowing:

When I type Houston it writes "Texas". I will use seven "States" and about 10 cities for each one. I tried with "vloopup" and "lookup" but I got "#N/A" as a result.


Thanks!

You will need to build a table with the names of the Cities in Column A and the applicable states adjacent in column B. Then you can use Vlookup against that table. To be sure,

Attach a sample workbook (not a picture or pasted copy). 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.
