I am not very familiar with Excel functions and I need some advice on the following problem.

I have two worksheets called List1 and List2, which help me with ordering goods for my shop.

I want to find the exact keyword in List1 column B, e.g car, "read" the corresponding value from column C, then find the same word in List2 and return the value in column C. I am open to solutions using macro, script, or excel formula.

Something like this

I tried to solve it with VLOOKUP function in List2 but the data is from my supplier so it's in different order and he may change or add some new rows in it sometimes and i must always copy the function from the previous version of the file one by one and paste them to the new one. The table contains more than 3,000 items but I am only ordering something like 200.

Thanks in advance, for any help...

Try this:

=INDEX(list1.$c$2:$c$7,MATCH(list2.c2,list1.$A$1:$A$6,0))
