If you are looking for an exact match use vlookup or index and match combo

=VLOOKUP(A104,'Issue 1'!E2:H102,4,0)

or

=INDEX('Issue 1'!H2:H102,MATCH(A104,'Issue 1'!E2:E102,0))

For instance, the equation for the cell that is to the right of zero is
"=LOOKUP(A104, 'Issue 1'!$E$2:$E$102, 'Issue 1'!$H$2:$H$102)"

What is your lookup equation?

I'm having trouble using the lookup function.

I have numbers that look like this in a list, although it's only part
of
what I'm using:

-11 2179
-10 2420
-9 2661
-8 2897
-7 3123
-6 3332
-5 3521
-4 3683
-3 3814
-2 3910
-1 3970
0 3989
1 3970
2 3910
3 3814
4 3683
5 3521
6 3332
7 3123
8 2897
9 2661
10 2420
11 2179

When I use the lookup function on another sheet of the cell, it does
not
look up the proper value always. My columns go from (-100, 100).
Outside
the values of (-10,10), the lookup works properly.

These are the lookup cells:

-11 2179
-10 2420
-9 2420
-8 2897
-7 3123
-6 3332
-5 3521
-4 3521
-3 3814
-2 3814
-1 3910
0 3989
1 3989
2 3910
3 3910
4 3683
5 3521
6 3521
7 3123
8 3123
9 2661
10 2420
11 2179

If you'll notice, the values that the lookup cells get are not the
values
of
the cell they're looking up, but often one off.

Any suggestions on why this might be happening?
