Subject: $$Excel-Macros$$ urgent - pls help with this formula to match closest 
zip

col i in Sheet 2 needs to be filled up   . Can u please fill it up with a 
formula.  Vlook true is not working 

by looking at sheet 1 col c value- either exact or next closest-   I need to 
get the closest value.  examples in sheet attached. Exact is first preference . 
if no exact is
found, then the next closest value should be the answer.

say if the value i am searching is 220 and the values in the sheet close to 220 
are 240 and 212, 212 is the final answer since 212 is closer to 220 then 240. 
Difference should be less. Thanks
