sorry for not being utterly clear but i left it to you to sort out the ranges since you have your worksheet in front of you. Also formula separators are up to you to sort out.
If you want to get the value from D you must understand the formula.
This is the way you should type the formula in E3:
Code:
[COLOR=#333333]=IF(ISBLANK(C3);""; INDEX(StockMain!D:D;MATCH(C3;StockMain!C:C;0)))[/COLOR]
INDEX tries to find the relative position of the barcode in column C on StockMain.
MATCH takes this position and return the value in the same location in column D on
StockMain.
So you should not change what is in the INDEX brackets.
