Region the store belongs to??Thanks

=INDEX(Sheet!$A$2:$A$100,MATCH($A2,Sheet1!$B$2:$B$100),0)

A2 in sheet2 contains the Store Number

Copy formula down if you have list of stores in A3 onwards

Try this

=INDEX(A:A,MATCH(Sheet2!D1,B:B,0))

Lookup value in sheet2 D1
Store numbers in col B Regions in Col A

To use VLOOKUP the item you are searching for must be in the left-most
column of the lookup table. You will need to use an INDEX(MATCH())
combination if this is not the case, so have a look in XL Help.

Hope this helps.
