in Column A, Row 2 = ATL
in Column B, Row 2 = Atlanta, GA. and so on....

On Worksheet 2 -

This worksheet is my lane worksheet where I have an Origin and Destination
- in Column A, Row 1 = CHI (origin)
- in Column B, Row 1 = ATL (destination)



I need a formula that will convert the abbreviation cities into the full name cities, this will need to convert them so I can pull them into a "worksheet 3"....

ex: - in Column A, Row 1 = Chicago, IL
- in Column B, Row 1 = Atlanta, GA

Thanks,

ASSUME that your table range in Sheet 1 is A1:B100.

Enter the following formula in Sheet 3, Cell:

A1: =vlookup(Sheet2!A1,Sheet1!$A$1:$B$100,2,0)

B1: =vlookup(Sheet2!B1,Sheet1!$A$1:$B$100,2,0)

You're welcome ... thanks for the feedback.
