Use VLOOKUP
If you tell us where each block of data resides, I will give a more detailed
answer.

What do you mean?
where each file is on my computer?
Bernard Liengme - 27 Oct 2006 18:43 GMT
No -the sheet name and the rows & columns for Directory, and for the Sheet 1
stuff
It will make it easier to give you a working formula

The Directory
has the field "ZCTA" in Column A in Sheet 1
Sheets 2-6 have Column A as "ZCTA" and Column B as "POP"

The directory is in sheet one
the other 5 sheets have the ones that need to be matched in columns c-g
of the directory.

So probably you need in Sheet1, cell C5

   =VLOOKUP(A5,Sheet2!A:B,2,FALSE)

and so on for values from sheet 3 to sheet 5
