Vlookup
What's wrong with this formula?
Forecast =IF(V$8="Actual",VLOOKUP($B$1&$A9,'New Financials Template.xls'!Database,17,IF(V$8="Forecast",VLOOKU P($B$1&$A9,'New Financials Template.xls'!Database,29,0)))) The word Forecast is in cell V8 and is formatted as text. All of the vlookups work correctly where the word is "Actual", but when it's "Forecast" it returns the value "FALSE" |

Vlookup
You need at least a closing ")" and probably a 0 for the range_lookup on
your first lookup: =IF(V$8="Actual",VLOOKUP($B$1&$A9,'New Financials Template.xls'!Database,17,0),IF(V$8="Forecast",VLO OKUP($B$1&$A9,'New Financials Template.xls'!Database,29,0))) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Micki" wrote in message ...
