Problem w/vlookup

[Sandy]

I have created a employee absentee form. In comment area, want to type in
number from range that automatically types in description from same range.

=IF(OR(VLOOKUP(D55,(H3:I13),2,FALSE)),(VLOOKUP(D55,(L3:M13),2,FALSE)),(VLOOKUP(D55,(O39),2,FALSE)))


SUMMARY OF COMMUNICATION:
Date Code Reason
1/1/08 A 10 #VALUE!


H I L M
O P

No. Reason No. Reason No. Reason
1 Accident - Self or family 11 Injury on Job 22 Weather

I thought I could use an if then statement, but that was from back when I
did formulas in spreadsheet in 80's.

Any help would be appreciated.

=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(D55,H3:I13,2,0)),IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(D55,L3:M13,2,0)),IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(D55,H3:I13,2,0)),"Not
found",VLOOKUP(D2,O110,2,0)),VLOOKUP(D55,L3:M13,2,0)),VLOOKUP(D55,H3:I13,2,0))

=IF(OR(D55="",D55=0),"",IF(D55<11,VLOOKUP(D55,H3:I13,2,FALSE),IF(D55<21,VLOOKUP(D55,L3:M13,2,FALSE),VLOOKUP(D55,O39,2,FALSE))))

Hope this helps.

I am also assuming with my formula that D55 has data validation to limit it
to valid entries of nothing (or 0) to 25 in whole numbers.

Thank you so much for your time and effort. The formula works perfectly.
