    Assuming you adjusted the ranges in the formula to match your actual ranges in the sheet, then the value does not exist or, if it "appears" to exist, then perhaps there is a trailing space in either the look up value or the matching value. Trailing spaces are invisible. You'll have to test the length of the look up value and the matching value (if it exists, in fact). If they are not the same length then you will get the error.

    It will save time and questions if you upload a sample workbook.
    To verify the formula is functioning correctly, type a unique value in column-A, in the same range as the current look up values, of both sheets so that you know for a fact you have two valid matching entries.

    If the formula returns a value from column-D, then the formula is correct and the problem lies elsewhere.

    You did adjust my original formula per your actual cell ranges, correct?
