I have data in Sheet 1 Column A-P. Column D is a list with account numbers. In sheet 2 I have a mapping data. Column A is a type of account. Column B is account # and Column C is account description. In Sheet 1 in column Q I have following formula: =VLOOKUP(D2,Sheet2!A:C,1,FALSE)
I am trying to look up the account number from cell D2 in the Sheet 2 list and return value in column A which is the type of the account.
Basically I have a list with account numbers which have type of the account next to it and I am trying to assign account type to account number in my transaction list in Sheet1.
This is a very simple v-look up and I have done this many times when I have the data that I am looking up in another sheet. It always works, but this time it returns #N/A
I don't understand why. I checked for the cell formatting. Sheet 1 Column D is formatted as number and Sheet 2 Column B is formatted ad number, so it matches. I also tried moving my data around, because I know sometimes there's an issue that v-look up cannot look up to the left, but I don't think that should be the issue if I am looking up in another Sheet.
Please help. I am out of ideas.
