Excel calculating same dates as different values???

**hijinxx** · 05-15-2012, 02:56 AM

Hi There

I have a workbook with 2 sheets, I have the same dates on sheet one and two and I am trying to use VLOOKUP to match them. However it is not working as excel is calculating the same date differently on both sheets. IE on sheet one when I express 2.9.02 18:58 as a number I get 37501,79059 while the same date on sheet two is calculated as 37501,79028 ??

any Ideas as why this is?

Thanks

Hi

Thanks for the replay. What I am actually trying to do is match dates from sheet one and two and then return the number two columns to the left of that number. I have attached an example sheet.

Thanks

Hi,

please doublecheck if what you get from the formula is unexpected.
