Sorry typo, data is in A34 to D54

So If you only have data in Cells A1 to D22 in Sheet2, why is the VLOOKUP
formula searching from A34 to D54.

Thanks Michael.

This is the formula I have in cell B7
=LOOKUP(D5,{0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55,60,6 5,70,75,80,85,90,95,100},{"1","1.5","2","2.5","3", "3.5","4","4.5","5","5.5","6","6.5","7","7.5","8", "8.5","9","9.5","10","10.5","11"})

I then have put in cell B12 =VLOOKUP(B7,SHEET2!A34:D54,2)

I have data in sheet 2 from A1 to D22, but only want to pick up the figure
that appears in B? which is next to the figure in A? which corresponds with
the figure showing in B7 sheet 1.

Are you able to see where I'm going wrong?

It sounds like the other VLOOKUP formula is referring to an inappropriate
reference, hence the #N/A
It might pay to supply more detail and possibly the formulae you are trying
to refer to.
I have used the VLOOKUP to read from another VLOOKUP without any problems.

Thanks for that. It does work what you've suggested but just not with the
cell I want it to work with, that is the cell figure I want to search for on
the second sheet, first column - do you know of any reasons why this would be
happen. The cell I want to work from contains another vlookup formula.

Hi

Just need some help as to which function I use. I have a figure in say A1
that I want to match to the same figure in another worksheet in column A &
return what the figure is in column B to show in A2. I've been using the
vlookup and lookup functions but just seem to get back #N/A.

Hope it makes sense, help would be much appreciated.
