Excel 2007
I have a list of a few thousand cell phone numbers I want to sms, so need to find their carrier and corresponding text email address. I purchased a list of all the area codes and prefixes with the carrier that owns the number and was planning on a simple vlookup, but it is a little more complicated. Here are the problems
Column A has is the area codes, so many duplications.
Column B has the prefixes.
Colum C has the 7th number from the phone number only if necessary.
For example, area code 201 with prefix 202 is owned by USA Mobility. There is nothing listed in column C because they own all of prefix 202 and there is only one row for this area code/prefix combo. But area code 201 with prefix 204 is listed over 10 different rows becase each 7th number with that area code and prefix are owned by different companies.
So, I need a way to type in a phone number and have the email extension, if available, returned. I am sure that this sounds rather confusing, but with the attached sample hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.
Thank you.
