    Populate Owner Name in a Cell

    Hello all,

    Needing to figure out how to grab owner information (Name in this example) based on a specific identifier in a table. Please see my attached file for example.

    In the FeedData sheet, I need to populate the owner column with the right owner name that pertains to the lot (Column A). The reference table is in the <Lot Owners> tab within the spreadsheet. Note that I need to return "Other" if no lot owner is listed in the <Lot Owners> table.

    Thanks ahead for your time.

    -Manny

    Basic VLOOKUP:

    =VLOOKUP([@Lot],TblLotOwners[#All],2,0)

    Thanks. That works. The only problem is I need the formula to return the text "Other" if the value is a Zero. How best to accomplish that?
