Hi,

What is the result you are getting? Your formula is not a lookup it is a
SUM. So unlike VLOOKUP it will return the sum of all items in N whose value
in column M matches the value in A7.

You can get rid of the {}'s by using

=SUMPRODUCT(('Aug 08'!$M$10:$M$438=Tina!A7)*('Aug 08'!$N$10:$N$438))

I have the above formula in (Worksheet Tina) and I want to look up the
information in Column A of that worksheet to match information in (Worksheet
Aug 08) Column M and if the information matches to return the value in Column
N. I am not sure what I have done incorrectly can you please assist me.
