# Using AMPscript Language Elements with Enterprise Awareness

These AMPscript functions include Enterprise awareness:

- `LookupRows()`
- `Lookup()`
- `LookupOrderedRows()`

You can use the `ENT.` prefix with these functions to indicate to the system that the data extension operated on exists at the parent Enterprise level.

In the following example, the system looks up data from the MERCHANT data extension, which is stored at the Enterprise Administrator level:

```
%%[
  Var @rows
  Set @rows = LookupRows("Ent.Merchants","TRAVELWEB_MERCHANT_ID",200043800)
]%%

<p>%%=Field(Row(@rows,1),"merchant_name")=%%</p>
```
