Look Up Table Matching

Hi everyone,
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Apologies all, it seems I have managed to figure out the below and have previously had help with a similar query - see link for solution.
Please disregard.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am attempting to implement some kind of look up table where I can use VLOOKUP or INDEX and MATCH to find the associated value. I'm having a little trouble with the formula to do this.
The work flow is as follows (see image for a visual aid): User inputs data through a Smart Form - this goes into my Raw Data Sheet - lets call this Sheet A (LH side on image). A helper column (in example below: the column is result) at the end of sheet A is where I intend to perform the formula down the list of entries.
Lets assume user made three entries. FieldA, FieldB, FieldC.
Now, a separate Look Up table exists on a different sheet (RH side of image) - lets call this Sheet B. On this sheet FieldA associates with 1 on the same row, FieldB with 2 on the same row and FieldC with 3 on the same row.
In this example, essentially, I am attempting to bring Column 5 into result based on Primary column and Column4 being the same.
Assistance on this is most appreciated.
Thanks.

@AlexP try the following formula:
=INDEX([Column5]:[Column5], MATCH([Primary Column]@row, [Column4]:[Column4], 0), 1)
You will need a cross-sheet formula to reference Sheet B from Sheet A.
