    How to find a number (similar to Vlookup but not exactly)

    Hi,

    I would like to run a iteration that takes a number from column B and searches where it fits on column A.

    For example:

    Column A Column B
    3
    10 18
    34 22
    56 24
    lets say i is for incrementing on column B
    j is for incrementing on clolumn B

    So I would like to take 18 and search where it fits so it would be between row 2 and 3.
    and then i++ on column B so it would be 22 and again do the same thing from the top on column A to bottom. so j has to be reset to 0 but I dunno how to do that reset.

    Please help me out!!
    Thanks!!!!

    Why not just copy what's in B, into A? and then do a sort.
