Mike,
I don't think I posed my question properly.
I have two work sheets and the first column of the 2nd worksheet has all the
combinations of parts that I need. On the first sheet in column C are part
numbers. I have to look at the 2nd sheet to see what kind of part it is and
insert a single letter in the first worksheet in column C.
