What do you mean by "correct values"? Also, when you post back, please
clarify your table. It's very difficult to tell which column your data is
in.

I'm using the vlookup function to display the different types of work
hours
for employees. But if there are multiple descriptions, the 1st result is
the
only one I get.

A C D
Emp# Code Hours salary regular ot vacation
93 REGSAL 4.00 4.00 0.00 0.00 0.00
93 OVTIME 4.03 4.00 0.00 0.00 0.00
93 REGLAR 7.98 4.00 0.00 0.00 0.00
93 VACTON 8.00 4.00 0.00 0.00 0.00

the forumlas i'm using are
for salary: IF(VLOOKUP(A2,A:C,3,0)="REGSAL",VLOOKUP(A2,A:D,4,0 ),0)
for regular: IF(VLOOKUP(A2,A:C,3,0)="REGLAR",VLOOKUP(A2,A:D,4,0 ),0)
for ot: IF(VLOOKUP(A2,A:C,3,0)="OVTIME",VLOOKUP(A2,A:D,4,0 ),0)
for vacation: IF(VLOOKUP(A2,A:C,3,0)="VACTON",VLOOKUP(A2,A:D,4,0 ),0)

How do i get the correct values to display?
