    Lookup matching value

    Hello,

    So I'm trying to look up the a value and provide the name in an adjacent cell that corresponds to it. For instance I'm looking for the number 5 in a column and what the company name whose number that belongs to. Any suggestions???

    Thanks it's much appreciated!

    Perhaps the VLOOKUP function?

    I tried it but sometimes it returns the wrong value, because of the other functions I have in there some of the cells have #div/0 in them which for some reason throws it off.

    Try =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(your_conditions),"") which will trap the errors ( also the N/A of course)
