Hi
and there're no blanks in your lookup table for the 'MR' value?

I have a spreadsheet with a table lookup. This is the formula I
use:
=INDEX('PRODUCT TABLE'!$E$2:$M$146,MATCH(L23,'PRODUCT
TABLE'!$E$2:$E$145,0),9)

It returns a correct response (or 0) for every lookup except MR!
If
I
change the L23 cell to MP I get the correct response for MP. If
I
change it
back to MR, I get #N/A. I have changed the Product Table cells
for
MR -
brought the cell above (MP) down to the MR cell and changed it to
MR,
added
and deleted the other lookup fields in the table hoping to get a
response -
nothing. I've deleted the MR rows and added them back in -
nothing.

Any ideas besides changing the MR code to something else? I
don't
want to
do that since the MR is the logical code to use.

Thanks,
