Vlookup - Identify Label - Excel Programming Bug
Hi Andy
Don't think its a bug!!!
Your data range is 2 columns wide A:B and you are trying to use an
offset of 16!!

Hi. I use VLOOKUP formula's every single day - I use them A LOT !
My current machine has Ms Excel 2003.
A normal Vlookup formula looks like :
=VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet1!$A$16:$B$21,16,FALSE)
Prior to Ms Excel 2003, I have NEVER had a problem with Vlookup
formula's.
HOWEVER.....Some "Genius" Programmer at Excel has bugged the Worksheet
command.
Now, when I go to type "FALSE" at the end of a Vlookup command, Excel
suddenly opens a Dialog Box looking to "Identify Label"....
If I try to close this box or cancel it - Excel crashes with the loss
of all
unsaved work.
There does not seem to be any means of turning this damned function
off
either.
It seems to me a classic case of somebody trying to 'Fix' Excel when
it's
not broken.
PLEASE PLEASE....If there's any download, bug fix or <ANYTHING I can
do to
stop this damned dialog box opening up and crashing Excel - I would
LOVE to
know what it is.
Thanks,
A.
