Default subtotals value can be vlookup by another worksheet

Here is my problem:

I have sheet #1 contains part no. A with on hand qty 10 pcs= book qty.
col 1 col. 2
part no. book qty
A 10


Now we are doing physical count - I have a new sheet #2 = it subtotal part
no. A (it has 3 count tags on this part) with subtotal qty 25pcs
The result subtotal shown on sheet#2:
part no. tag qty
A 1 20
A 2 3
A 3 2
A Total 25 = this is a subtotal line



I would like to use sheet #1 and vlookup phy qty associate part no. A data
from sheet #2:

col. 1 col. 2 col. 3
part no. book qty physical qty
A 10 25 - this data from vlookup on
sheet #2 subtoal value.

However, it always shown col. 3 - #N/A, it won't lookup subtotal qty from
part no. A

Please reply.

Thank you,
BB

I don't understand the question, what do you mean by that? Subtotals as in
datasubtotal is a number, it can be either a sum but if the values to be
totaled are text then it will count those values and it uses the subtotal
formula function which looks like

=SUBTOTAL(9,Range)

for sum

or

=SUBTOTAL(3,Range)

for count

if you are using a value from the for a lookup and you'll get a #N/A error
then most likely you have more decimals than is shown by the formatting so
what you believe to be a match is not

other
worksheet?
