    VlookUp not Working?

    Hi,

    I’m having some issues regarding VlookUp not pulling the correct numbers and could use some help.

    On the file attached, there are two tabs, the first tab “Original” contains the nVlookup functions and the numbers that the Vlookup searched within a table. The “Correct” tab contains that table.

    For some reason, the Vlookup is pulling the wrong info, and I don’t know why.

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks?

    Re: VlookUp not Working?

    Leaving the last argument of Vlookup will be considered as approximate match instead of Exact Match

    Your Current Formula
    =VLOOKUP(A2,Correct!$A$2:$D$4,2)

    The above one and this one both are similar which is considered as Approximate match
    =VLOOKUP(A2,Correct!$A$2:$D$4,2,1)
    =VLOOKUP(A2,Correct!$A$2:$D$4,2,TRUE)

    Your actual formula should be

    =VLOOKUP(A2,Correct!$A$2:$D$4,2,FALSE)

    Or

    =VLOOKUP(A2,Correct!$A$2:$D$4,2,0)
