Excel formula help

[Duckyspawn]

Hello all,

I am trying to create a formula that will take the information in the column
to the left and fill in the cell with the information in the right column.
For example, I have the following:

R/C FACTOR
1 35
2 36
3 37
4 38
6 39
7 40
8 41
9 41
10 42
12 43
13 44
15 45
16 46
17 47
18 49
20 50
21 51
22 53
23 54
24 56
25 57
26 58
28 60
29 61
30 63
31 65


I need the formula to take the RC value that I type into one cell and put
the corresponding Factor in the formula cell. So if I type 1 in the cell, the
formula would compute it to be 35, if I type 30, it would say 63.

How would I do this?

The following formula looks up data
=VLOOKUP(C2,$A$2:$B$27,2,FALSE)
C2 respresents the number you typed into a cell.
The formula needs to be in a separate cell.

Note that the range A$2:$B$27. It is in absolute format with the $ signs.

Suggest you see help for more info on VLOOKUP and also absolute.
