    Match results to reference data

    Hi there,

    I have an extensive list of data and I need to return certain results in the 'ACTION' column B depending on the 'OUTPUT' in column C. I've attached a sample. The resultant value in column B needs to look at the first number only in column C and then look at column E and return the corresponding 'ACTION REF' as listed in the column F.

    Any assistance would be gratefully received.

    Regards

    Ben
