Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
Welcome to the Board!

It sounds to me like you are simply trying to look up a value from another list and return another column associated with that value.
If so, you should be able to do this quite easily with a XLOOKUP function.
See here for details and examples: XLOOKUP function - Microsoft Support

If you need further help, please provide us with more details and some examples of what your data looks like as well as your expected results.
MrExcel has a tool called “XL2BB” that lets you post samples of your data that will allow us to copy/paste it to our Excel spreadsheets, so we can work with the same copy of data that you are. Instructions on using this tool can be found here: XL2BB Add-in

Note that there is also a "Test Here” forum on this board. This is a place where you can test using this tool (or any other posting techniques that you want to test) before trying to use those tools in your actual posts.
