    Searching one list for items in another a bit like Vlookup - need help before I go bald!

    I have a list of available parts in Column A

    I have a list of AVAILABLE parts in column D
    PART LIST
    9193872
    93176389


    I want to perform a kind of V lookup to result in something like:

    Available parts list 1 LOOKUP Result

    OPEL 4700711 9193872 SUZUKI 5531183E00000 55311-83E00 9193872
    OPEL 93176389 93179462 SUBARU 5531184E01 5531186G02 SUZUKI 93176389

    I'm pulling my hair out!

    Thanks

    Maybe not most elegant solution but it's working...

    That is a thing of Beauty! Thank you!

    What do I change to make it return the next column along, instead of the part number?

    All the best

    Re: Searching one list for items in another a bit like Vlookup - need help before I go bal

    Apologies, I mean if we had PRICES in column E, how do i make it return those prices using that particular formula?

    I know I could do it with a Vlookup, just curious!

    Thanks again
