Question : Userform Search

I have an userform that contains a combobox (cmbDescription1). This combobox is multicolumn (2 columns) but only the 2nd column is showing in the combobox. The first column contains a unique identifier from Column E on the "Data" sheet. The second column contains a description from Column F on the "Data" sheet. I need to take the identifier from the first column and search column E. When that identifier is found, I need to return the value of column G into a textbox named txtInstall1. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
