    Extract data from column B based on data in column A and 'paste' into column D

    Hi all,

    I have a list of products in column A with their corresponding prices in column B (Several thousand rows long)

    In column C (Can be any column, doesn't matter) I have a small list of products (A few hundred rows long)
    I would like to somehow extract the prices for those products from column B and 'paste' them in the adjacent column of the short list of products so that the product and price match up.

    If a product isn't there then maybe paste a zero or something that denotes that the product wasn't found in column A.

    Any help is much appreciated.
