Combining two lookup commands

I am trying to combine two LOOKUP commands in one cell, with no joy, can anyone enlighten me.

The first is

Code:
=VLOOKUP(C330,'Trust Acc'!$A$2:$B$20,2,FALSE)

If the result of this returns 0 the second is

Code:
=VLOOKUP(B330,'Jez test'!$A$2:$F$200000,6,False)


I have researched and tried many variances but to no avail.

Thanks in advance
 

Excel Facts

Square and cube roots
The =SQRT(25) is a square root. For a cube root, use =125^(1/3). For a fourth root, use =625^(1/4).
Maybe

=IF(VLOOKUP(C330,'Trust Acc'!$A$2:$B$20,2,FALSE)=0,VLOOKUP(B330,'Jez test'!$A$2:$F$200000,6,False),0)

Thanks for the quick response.

If the first lookup is true '0' is returned as the result and not the value in column 2, if the first lookup is false the correct result is returned from the second lookup.

Blimey, I botched that up good and proper, apologies.

Try (untested)
=IF(VLOOKUP(C330,'Trust Acc'!$A$2:$B$20,2,FALSE)<>0,VLOOKUP(C330,'Trust Acc'!$A$2:$B$20,2,FALSE),VLOOKUP(B330,'Jez test'!$A$2:$F$200000,6,False))
