I was trying to fiddle with xl2bb but I don't know how illuminating it would be to post two exact pieces of data. The excel file is being downloaded from a server rather than being user created. I am following the video tutorial here:
and everything works fine with his example but I cannot create the cache out of the data that I need for analysis. At first I thought it had something to do with the size of the spreadsheet but if I trim the spreadsheet down to a few lines and a few columns the error persists. If I then copy and paste that small range of data to a new worksheet there are no problems. Most online solutions I see to problems involving error 1004 is to check for hidden columns or for empty column headers but I do not know if that applies here

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.
