    Data Matching Between Sheets in Columns

    I have what should be a simple process but just need a little guidance....

    I have two sheets Call them Sheet1 and Sheet2 for the sake of this post...

    In Sheet 1 I have a number of NAMES in column a and they correspond to a location in Column B In Column C there is a piece of data that is pulled from Sheet 2

    IE:

    Sheet1

    Cell A1 = John Smith Cell B1 = Location1 Cell C1 = Sheet2$B1
    Cell A2 = John Doe Cell B2 = Location 2 Cell C2 = Sheet2$B2
    Cell A3 = Mike Jones Cell B3 = Location 1 Cell C1 =Sheet2!B1

    Sheet 2
    Cell A1= Location1 Cell B1=25
    Cell A2 = Location2 Cell B2=33
    Cell A3= Location3 Cell B3=45

    What I am trying to do is... Make Sheet 1 Column C automatically Fill with the value from Sheet 2 Column B as long as the Value in Sheet 1 Column B matches the value in Sheet 2 Column A

    Should be simple but looking for a quick solution....
