    WorksheetFunction.Lookup with Vlookup and Row

    Hello Excel VBA Experts,

    I have a formula that I use in Excel and it's working.

    The formula below basically returns me EITHER the ROW INDEX of approximate match (via vlookup) OR #N/A (which means there's no approx. match)

    My question is, when I tried to mimic the same formula above to VBA, it's giving me a "Run-time error '13' Type Mismatch".

    Below is part of the VBA code.

    May I know how do I get it to work like the excel function formula?

    Thanks

    Hi protonLeah,

    I think you misunderstood my question.

    The Excel formula gives the result that I want.

    What I'm trying to accomplish here is that, I'd like to accomplish the way the formula has done but in VBA.

    So basically, in VBA, I have to change each value that's in B8 where the formula is at ...VLOOKUP(B8....) to be in VBA.

    I've tried to mimic it, that's why I have this

    I tried to put EVALUATE in front of that in VBA, and still gave me an error value, instead of the Excel Formula result

    Re: WorksheetFunction.Lookup with Vlookup and Row

    Some formulas can't be converted to VBA using Application.WorksheetFunction and when they can't you should use Evaluate as protonLeah has shown.

    The problem with this formula is that you are trying to compare a range of values to a single value, that's not possible, directly, in VBA.
    If posting code please use code tags, see here.

    I see...

    Thanks Norie for the input.

    That means I'll have to use .Find instead.

    Re: WorksheetFunction.Lookup with Vlookup and Row

    Can't you use the suggested Evaluate?

    That should give the same result as the formula on the sheet, all you'll need to do is replace the hard-coded references.
