vlookup with range reference
Hi there,
Does anyone know how to successfully put a range reference in a vlookup formula? Let me explain: I have a range set up as JanWeek1 (which refers to a range on another sheet within the same workbook). Now, the vlookup formula = vlookup(A1,Z1,3,0) but it gives me an error because Z1 = "JanWeek1" (set up as text or general field). Is there another way of doing this without sacrificing my reference to Z1 as the range reference? Thank you in advance, |
