Vlookup!

3 New Member
I am using this formula in my sheet
=VLOOKUP(A10,ta ble,2)
A10 is a cell that has the function :Left(sheet1!"c 10")[this cell is on sheet2], it contains the correct value needed for the lookup but its isnt working! Can anyone help out?
Thanks in Advance

As a debugging exercise, have you tried replacing the formula in A10 with the actual value, copied from sheet1!C10?

Also, how accurately is Left(sheet1!"c1 0") copied to this message? The syntax doesn't look correct (but of course, that may just mean I haven't used this particular format).

One more question - how certain are you of the precise value which is in sheet1!C10 - since you're grabbing the first character, could there be a leading space or something that you weren't aware of?

VlookUp or Vertical LookUp is a function that enables Excel to ‘Find’ related items from within a range stored elsewhere. Elsewhere can mean another excel workbook on another PC, but can also mean a range in the current worksheet. In any Range reference in Excel, a ’$’ preceeding an element of the address, simply tells Excel not to be clever when copying or dragging the formula to other cells. Notice the formulas displayed in column B below:...

Looking up values from an Access table is simple. Simulating the 'Range Lookup' functionality from Excel's VLookup formula is a bit trickier. For those that aren't familiar with this, it allows you to look up the next smallest value to what you provided, and return any corresponding field from the table. Very useful for looking up things like currency exchange rates, tax rates, etc., where there might not be an entry for every day/income...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
