    Re: Vlookup to look up value based on accoun number

    IF it existed... and the formula was modified to:

    =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A1,'[TB Test.xlsx]Sheet1'!$A:$E,MATCH($Q$1,'[TB Test.xlsx]Sheet1'!$A$1:$E$1,0)),"")

    it works perfectly.

    Take a look now. I got messed up as i had several copies open at once. Basically you forgot FALSE in the VLOOKUP to specify an exact match.
