Try this instead

=VLOOKUP(AI61,{"NearExactExactExact","A4";"ExactNe arExactExact","A1";"ExactNearExactDifferent","A2"; "ExactDifferentExactExact","A2";"ExactDifferentExa ctDifferent","A3";"ExactAbsentExactExact","A2";"Ex actAbsentExactDifferent","A3";"ExactExactExactExac t","A1";"ExactExactExactDifferent","A2";"NearExact ExactDifferent","A3";90,"A-";93,"A";97,"A+"},2,0)



LOOKUP needs to have the lookup vector sorted in ascending order

Hi

I am running this lookup function but can't get the correct result,
anyone know what I am doing wrong

=LOOKUP(AI61,{"NearExactExactExact","ExactNearExac tExact","ExactNearExactDifferent","ExactDifferentE xactExact","ExactDifferentExactDifferent","ExactAb sentExactExact","ExactAbsentExactDifferent","Exact ExactExactExact","ExactExactExactDifferent","NearE xactExactDifferent",90,93,97},{"A4","A1","A2","A2" ,"A3","A2","A3","A1","A2","A3","A-","A","A+"})

value in AI61 is NearExactExactExact, but it is returning A-, I was
expecting it to return A4?
