Hello,

I need help with vlookup please, can't seem to get it working. Probably i am missing something here.

I'm trying to extract info from column A in to column F by comparing 'B' and 'E'.

Formula used in column F: =VLOOKUP(E66,A:B,1,FALSE)

Is A:B >> FN1 and FN2? Is FN3 the look up value?

If yes to both:

=INDEX(B:B,MATCH(E66,A:A,0))
Click to expand...

that is probably bad data i gave you but yes you are right, A=FN1, B=FN2, E=FN3 (lookup value).

i have applied your formula in 'F' =INDEX(B:B,MATCH(E2,A:A,0)) but still results in #N/A

The lookup value should be the 1st column in your selection , so to get your wexisting formula working you need to swap the column between Fn1 & Fn2

For example the last row

[TABLE="class: cms_table, width: 621"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]A:CZC2097DX B:SDES00452
[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]C:
[/TD]
[TD]CZC20601RM



Now if i take it as A,B,C then in D:= vlookup(C1,A:B,1,FALSE)
