I had a question re duplicates as well:
I am trying to do a vlookup matching number figurers to their corresponding
year. However the years are duplicated:

Jan 1990 5555

feb 1990 4555

Mar 1990 4444

Jan 1991 54487

Feb 1991 2255

And so on...

i have a separate table with just the numbers. I am trying to match the
year to the numbers in the other table but am uable to use the vlookp due to
the duplicates.

Suggestions would be great!

Thanks!
