Please use a larger tablet, notebook or desktop computer, or change your screen resolution settings.

Open the file contained within the folder name shown above.  We want to display the rating for each curry:

Using Lookup Tables for Text messages

The curries are rated from Very Mild to a worrying Health Warning!.

In cell C4, create an =VLOOKUP formula that displays the rating message for each curry.

Use the chilli rating table in column E and F as your lookup table.  If you create a range name you will be able to use this in your formula:

=VLOOKUP (Lookup cell, Table Range, Column ref)

Change the Very mild rating to 1140 and the highest rating of 20 to 18 to check that your formula works:
