You need 2 formulas in 2 cells.
Actually, you can enter 1 formula in 1 cell and then just drag copy across to the other cell. Try this: =VLOOKUP(lookup_value,$A$1:$C$3,COLUMNS($A:B),0) Now just drag copy across to the other cell. If the lookup_value is a reference to a cell make at least the column reference absolute: H1 = lookup_value =VLOOKUP($H1,$A$1:$C$3,COLUMNS($A:B),0) Biff "oldLearner57" wrote in message ... hi can use vlookup function to return with 2 columns value ? example: A B C 1 H Home $200 2 C Car $100 3 B Boat $250 by using the above range, i know how to use the vlookup to return, say, A1, it return for me "Home"...(i.e: =vlookup(lookupValue,A1:C3,2) how can i use the lookup to return more than 1 data, example, base on the above, I want it to display for me "Home" and "$200", and have them place in separated cell? any help community ? thanks community :) -- oldLearner57 |

Another way...
Select two cells in a row and while selected type in this lookup formula: =VLOOKUP(D1,A1:C3,{2,3},0) Now hit Ctrl + Shift + Enter, you will get { }'s around the formula and your lookup values will be in the two cells.
