Is it possible to do this...
In sheet1 I have
A1 to A1000 - numbers
B1 to B1000 - product name
In sheet2
In cells A1....A1000 I want to manualy input numbers in no order (ie 57, 127, 300...) and in cells
B2...B1000 I want product names from sheet1 automaticaly.
If I enter number 22 in cell A1 in sheet2 then cell B2 in sheet2 must fill with content from cell B(22+1) from sheet1.
Is it possible?

sorry I don't have excel installed on this machine so cannot remember the exact syntax but one of the "LOOKUPW formuluae should be able to do what you need...if the cells on sheet 1 Column A are sorted you might be able to use HLOOKUP in column B on sheet2. e.g cell Sheet2!a2=22 then in cell b1 on sheet2 the formula would look something like:-

=hlookup(a1,Sheet1!A1:B1000,2)

Sorry - lookup formulae should be something like

=VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet1!A1:B1000,2,FALSE)
