    Question Can a VLOOKUP formula be copied to another sheet within the workbook?

    I have a VLOOKUP formula that i'm trying to copy to another sheet, within the workbook, and i've tried these factors:

    1)...'Sheet1'!+VLOOKUP(A1,B1:C8,2,FALSE) = No Action
    2)...+'Sheet1'!VLOOKUP(A1,B1:C8,2,FALSE) = Error Message
    3)...+VLOOKUP('Sheet1'!A1,B1:C8,2,FALSE) = Value Not Available Error

    What am I doing wrong, and is this even possible to do?

    Not clear to me what you are trying to do: can you post a small sample excel file?

    Is this what you want ?

    In Sheet2

    =10*2+1.25+VLOOKUP(Sht,INDIRECT(Sht &"!E3:F4"),2,FALSE)

    "Sht" is named range for B4 on Sheet1

    I unmerged the cells in the drop-down

    I'm getting a #REF! error when I input your, recommended, formula.

    See attached.

    You will get #N/A error if Sheet2 is chosen as there is no table in Sheet2.

    Still not sure what you are trying to achieve.
