    [Solved] Vlookup and repeating the same outputs for the same input. How to stop repeating.

    So I have a ranking system, and when here is a tie, instead of listing all the people with the same score, it repeats the same name.

    The example attached is a version I have made for the example. Its really reading from 2 pages (the empty column represents the separation in
    Sheets so I kinda need to use the VLookup. Any solution or alternatives would be appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Are you using 365, as 2021 is not a valid version (it's a build number)?
    If so try
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    Yes, its 365.

    I entered that formula into H3 and it returned #SPILL!

    Any suggestions??

    You need to delete the contents of the cells below & the formula should automatically spill down.
