I have two different excel columns. One from Project A and one from Project B.

In both project A and Project B there are numbers that are similar, the first five digits are the same but the last two digits differ.

For Example the number in Project A is 5432134, 5432263, and so on. But for Project B they are Project B is 5432174, 5432272, and so on.

I would like two fill Column D so that the corresponding Project A number matches.

Example of formula enter image description here

In the picture provided I highlighted the number in red, of what I would like Excel to find. In cell D3 I would like Excel to place 5432134.

I tried using vlookup and cutting the last two digits out as shown in the image but that did not work

Any idea of a formula that can do this?
