The lookup call enables a simple pass/fail test to detect the presence or absence of a value in a list. The call accepts the parameter list name, key column, key value, value column and a default. All values may be static or variable-based.

Users can edit the headers inside the Lists page by right-clicking any column header and choosing Edit Column.
