Hi,

 

I have a database that looks something like this:

 

ItemCodeCode Description
ApplesRED 
BananasYEL 
OrangesORA 
PineapplesYEL 
PersimmonsORA 
PlumPUR 

 

I then have a dictionary which looks like this:

 

CodeDefinition
REDRed
YELYellow
ORAOrange
PURPurple

 

I want to look up my dictionary to infill my main database such that it will look like this:

 

ItemCodeCode Description
ApplesREDRed
BananasYELYellow
OrangesORAOrange
PineapplesYELYellow
PersimmonsORAOrange
PlumPURPurple

 

Could someone please help me do this?

 

Note the dictionary and database are in two separate files.

 

Thanks in advance!
