    Unhappy No macro - use Vlookup

    Hi ALL,
    I have two excels with following details where i am doing Vlookup from one excel into the other.

    Now in case if the data in first excel is not found , i search for one character less from second excel.
    not sure if its possible in excel.


    Data is like.

    Excel1.xls

    ColA ColB
    2011510629 A
    201151062 D
    2001510 F
    200014 G
    120012 Q

    The excel where i want ot performa the Vlookup has data as such.


    ColA ColB
    2011510629 121
    2011510622 2
    20015103 4
    200014 4
    120012 4
    in case of first values in ColA excat match can be found in previous excel. however for second one no exact match is there , in this case we need to seach it again using one charecter less and this will continue till be find a exact match.

    Hope somebody will have to a way to crack this using excel.
