    Identical-function with a specific cellanswer

    Hello,

    A B C D
    1 sup 2 =IF(OR(IDENTICAL(C1;$A$1:$A$4)); ? )
    2 rababer 4 =IF(OR(IDENTICAL(C2;$A$1:$A$4)); ? )
    3 blubbel 3 =IF(OR(IDENTICAL(C3;$A$1:$A$4)); ? )
    4 blub 3 =IF(OR(IDENTICAL(C4;$A$1:$A$4)); ? )

    So if the value of the cell C(1....4) is in column A, if true, the answer i need is the respective cell in B.
    I tried something with identical functions but have no clue who to get the result beeing the cell in B..

    e.g.: C1 = A2 the answer should be B2 in D4.

    Hope u guys can help!

    I don't know if is this what you want
    try
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =VLOOKUP(L5,$A$1:$B$2245,2,FALSE)

    Note: FALSE means exact match, TRUE means IDENTICAL match.

    Ok yeah i obv. didnt express myself very clearly, sry. :D

    We got an article list here: A is the article number, C is the article description.
    Say the L column is an order (list of article numbers) that i wanna assign the respective description to.

    So i need to search in A the article number from L und the answer is the article description C.

    Hi
    If I understand try this

    =VLOOKUP(L5,$A$1:$C$2245,3,FALSE)
    (if L5 is in A1:A2245 then get the corresponding value in the same line but column C. Is that?)
