Default VLookUp.

Hi ...

Yesterday I posted a question about deleting selected columns from a
table of data. I was surprised and grateful to receive several responses
complete with code in only a few hours. I chose to use the macro from Rob
Van Gelder because I could follow it better than the others.

Today I have another question, about VLookUp. I've read the help file
carefully, and it sure seems like this should work:

Sub FLook()
Worksheets(1).Cells(2, 2) = Application.WorksheetFunction _
.VLookup(Worksheets(1).Cells(5, 2), "F5:F16", 1, False)
End Sub

It should check the data in cell 5, 2 (which is really B5) and see if
there's a match in range F5:F16. If there's a match, it should copy it to
cell 2, 2. If not it should put #N/A in cell 2, 2. Get message, `Unable to
get the VLookUp property of the worksheet function class.'

Maybe I don't understand the use of VLookUp??
