Hi,

Below are the numbers from which I want my vlookup formula to pick only the first 3 digits.

However, if there is a "0" in the beginning of the formula, I'd like it to only pick the next 2 digits after 0.

Could you please help me in this formula assessment.

Currently, I've used the formula =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(LEFT(A98,3),'USPS - Zone & Rate Chart'!$B$4:$I$125,2,1),"")

However, for the ranges starting with 0, it returns the blank value.

01022-1174
01057-9616
01104-2628

Code:

no real example - not tested
