Answer: 

Hi there,

Suppose sheet1 has :
  A      |     B     

-----------------------
1   |  1      |    A
2   |  2      |    B
3   |  3      |    C
4   |  4      |    D
5   |  5      |    E

And Sheet2 has

  A      |     B     
-----------------------
1   |  6      |    AA
2   |  7      |    BB
3   |  8      |    CC
4   |  9      |    DD
5   |  10    |    EE

Let's assume that your search value is in D1

=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(D1,Sheet1!A1:B5,2,0),VLOOKUP(D1,Sheet2!A1:B5,2,0))
X =  formula in Green
Y = formula in Cyan
If X is valid then it will give result. If there is error in X then return Y.

Hope this makes sense.
