Vlookup

What reason is there that my vlookup finds some data but not others? Could this be something to do with cell formatting?

Thanks!

RE: Vlookup

Hi Jennifer

Do you get any error messages coming up in your spreadsheet in the cells where the Vlookup is not working properly?

Perhaps if you could provide a bit more information about your problem we might be able to solve it.

thanks
Amanda

RE: Vlookup

I think that you may get the wrong results by not having the last (optional) part of the formula that allows the table to be in ANY order rather than strict numerical/alphabetical. Without it, it will find the first/closest match then stop.

Excel tip:

Colouring cells containing formulas

Cells in a worksheet can contain values or they can contain formulas. You may wish to identify all the cells in your worksheet that contain formulas by colouring those cells.

Follow these steps:
1. Choose Edit > Go To menu, or press either F5 or Ctrl+G. Excel displays the Go To dialog box.
2. Click Special. Excel displays the Go To Special dialog box.
3. Select the Formulas radio button option.
4. Select OK.

At this point, every formula cell in the worksheet is selected, and those cells can be coloured formatted as desired.
