Vlookup partial values in a range

Question

I would like to use a vlookup to return values from a range.

The values I have in the range are of the format

ABCD1234  
ABCC1233

And I want to use just

ABCD  

to return the full ABCD1234 string.

essentially what I want to do is this:

=vlookup("ABCD",LEFT(MYRANGE,4),1,0)

How can I get this to work?

Answer 1

添加通配符应实现您想要的功能：

=VLOOKUP("ABCD*", yourRange, 1, 0)
