Hi and welcome to the Thunkable forums!

There is a problem with the way you are using variable blocks. Please see this topic and let me know if you have any questions after that: [Setting and Getting Stored Variables - Keep getting Null](https://community.thunkable.com/t/setting-and-getting-stored-variables-keep-getting-null/2856079)

Your question seems to be how to do a _vlookup_. This question comes up frequently on the forums and I would encourage you to search for that term if you haven’t yet.
