Hello! I have gotten some great help getting to this point in my project, and I am very grateful for that.
Currently, I am having Vlookup issues. Basically, I have a table that lists 3 columns, as follows " If the price is between 1.00 (first column), and 10.00 (second column) then the multiplier should be 5 (third Column). This data is on one worksheet. The place I am putting the formula is on another worksheet in column AP. I believe it should be working, but am not sure why it is not...

This mini sheet is where the formula is being entered, in AP9

Can anyone spot why this would not be working?

If you start asking yourself if now is a good time to save your Excel workbook, the answer is Yes
Try

Try

=VLOOKUP(AO9,'Set-Up'!$B$24:$E$32,4)

B24 will need to contain a zero.

DOing it this way makes perfect sense to me.... but it is still returning a value of '5' for all items regardless of cost...
=+VLOOKUP(AO9,'Set-Up'!$B$24:$D$32,3) (when is substitute the last condition with 4 for the column as in your formula, it returns #ref.
Any other help would be truly appreciated.

A couple of things

The formula in AP 9 is returning a #REF! error because the 3rd argument in you VLOOKUP is 4. That means the lookup is trying to look in column 4 of B24:D32 in Set-Up. That of course is impossible since that range only has 3 columns.

If you look at all the other formulas in column AP, you will see that they all say VLOOKUP(AO9,....

That would indicate either
a) You manually copy/pasted the same formula individually to each cell (unlikely), or
b) You pasted the formula once and copied it down but your worksheet is set to Manual calculation rather than Automatic to the formulas did not adjust & calculate.

With that workbook open check File -> Options -> Formulas and make sure it is set to Automatic

Here it is working for me:
(Note too that I have removed the "+" at the start of the formula as that does nothing.
