Default vlookup & "~" symbol

Hi

I think i must have missed something in my Excel learning...

What's the deal with the "~" symbol?

if you try to look something up & the text has one of those in it, it messes
up the vlookup.

is this a pretty standard thing that has just passed me by all these years?
is there anyway round it?

cheers

jb
