I don't understand why it does that,

I have a userform which inputs invoices into a table

when I try to enter the invoice number (for example, 312650370010022819) it enters a changed number to the cell! (changes the example to 312650370010022000)

Then I also have a feature in the initilize event of the form to pull the last value when opened again, and it pulls it as "3.12650370010022E+17"!!

how can I prevent that from happening?

is there a way to specify for this line :
Code:
[Invoices].Rows(x).Columns(c1) = InvoiceNumber.Value
to enter the value as string?

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.
