Excel Lookup with new output

* Version Number = Advanced ETL Processor Ent. 4.2.3.5

* Repository type = MS Excel 2007

* Database type you are working with. = .XLS

* OS = Windows 7

I am trying to import legacy data from one data source into into an excel and as part of the transformation of the data before reloading I have to look up legacy chart of account numbers and cross reference from a list to New chart of account numbers from a 2 column excel SS.

for example
if the legacy data line contains account number 1000 I am required to output to the new spreadsheet 10100
if the legacy number is 1005 I will output 10200 and so on.

Can I use a look up table to accomplish this or go through the tedious task of setting up a "Replace Characters" scenario for all the instances (of which I have about 1000 legacy accounts)

Legacy# New#
10000
1000 10100
1005 10200
1010 10250
1050 10300
10400
10810
1920 10820
11000
1100 11020
1110 11020
1112 11020
1115 11020
1120 11020
1125 11020
1127 11020

Yes Mike, I had reviewed that tutorial but was not clear on the output mapping, User Manual was vague for me also but through trial & error yesterday I figured it out (along with 5 ways NOT to set it up) lol
Thanks for your continued support!

Updating documentation and tutorials is on our massive list of things to do
I am glad you are making progress
