Trying to find Matches and Give a Result

C

I want to compare a cell in Sheet1, columnA with all cells in Sheet2, column
A. If a match is found, place the information found in column B of the
match(Sheet1) to colum B of sheet2. If no match is found, leave blank.

Please Help.

Try in B2:

=ISNA(VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet2!$A:$B,2,0)),"",VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet2!A:B,2,0))

Copy down.

Ths looks easier than the -IF(ISERROR... formula that I started off with
however I am getting a message that this formula contains errors too.
