Default VLOOKUP always returning the same value!

Just based on your sample, the phone numbers are all the same, so that
might explain why a VLOOKUP on Sam and Sally would appear to return
only Sam's phone number.

I'm an experienced Excel user, and have run into something beyond strange. My
vlookups (whether manually entered or run as part of an existing macro) will
now ONLY return the looked-up value for the first entry when I drop OR paste
the contents of the first cell down.

FOR EXAMPLE: If I have two sheets - one with names and phone numbers and one
with names and birthdays, and i try to do a vlookup on name between the two
sheets, it looks like this:

Sam 3/29/78 *414-323-4132
Sally 5/23/68 *414-323-4132
Tara 2/2/34 *414-323-4132
