Hello Everyone,
I am hoping to populate a cell in a worksheet using Vlookup and a lookup value. The lookup value is a First and a Last Name (e.g. Serena Williams). The table array is on a separate worksheet containing the staff details for all the staff in this company. However, the first and last name are on two separate columns (e.g. B1: Williams C1:Serena). The Vlookup formula I entered was not working. I have attached the example below:
Worksheet 1:
[TABLE="width: 376"]
<colgroup><col span="2"></colgroup><tbody>[TR]
[TD][TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Staff
[/TD]
[TD]Rank
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Serena Williams
[/TD]
[TD](Want Result Here)
[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
Worksheet 2
[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Surname
[/TD]
[TD]Forename
[/TD]
[TD]Position
[/TD]
[TD]Reporting Unit
[/TD]
[TD]Joining Date
[/TD]
[TD]Grade
[/TD]
[TD]Rank
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Williams
[/TD]
[TD]Serena
[/TD]
[TD]Manager
[/TD]
[TD]Finance
[/TD]
[TD]12/12/2012
[/TD]
[TD]B
[/TD]
[TD]Senior Manager
[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
Ideally, the Vlookup formula will return the rank based on part of the name present in worksheet 1.
Many thanks for your help!
