IF , then function - need help

Copper Contributor

I would like  to enter data in two cells inside a worksheet in a workbook 

then have the data from those cells  go through a IF condition formula to move to the correct location in another tab inside the same workbook

basically sorted between  5 named tabs, 14 named columns? 

Example

Tag Number , Tag Type

400500 cell B4, C1 cell E4

I have 5 tabs named:  1's for any six digit tag number that starts with "1"

2's  for any six digit tag number that starts with "2"

3's for any six digit tag number that starts with "3"

4's for any six digit tag number that starts with "4"

5's for any six digit tag number that starts with "5"

Tag Type can be from C1 - C14 

My question is: what is the correct formula for this? based on the structure of my workbook.

=IF B4 starts with number 4 , and tag type is C1 , enter on Tab named 4's under column C1 

add row for next entry.
