Look up & auto populate between sheets
If I have two cells on Sheet 1 (cells A1 & A2) Where A1 is where Id enter
someones IQ score and A2 would represent their percentile rank. Sheet 2 is a two column table w/ all possible IQ scores (Column A) and Percentile Ranks (Column B). My question, is it possible to use a lookup function to look up a percentile rank (from sheet 2). For example, if I enter an IQ of 130 in cell A1 (sheet 1) and excel would look up the corresponding Percentile Rank (sheet 2) and then bring this Percentile Rank value forward to sheet 1 and autopopulate cell A2. "it seemed much more clear when it was just in my head..." Thanks in advance. Steve |

In Sheet1,
In A2: =IF(A1="","",VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet2!A:B,2,0)) -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 Downloads:20,500 Files:363 Subscribers:64 xdemechanik --- "Shek5150" wrote: If I have two cells on Sheet 1 (cells A1 & A2) Where A1 is where Id enter someones IQ score and A2 would represent their percentile rank.

Look up & auto populate between sheets
Is it possible to make the end result cells calculate? I am doing something
similar in a mileage log for staff. Based on the client selected, a number of miles is returned from a list. Since this is a form template that will be filled out by staff, I copied the formula to about 10 rows so the fields will automatically populate. My problem is that I need all of these mileage totals to sum but am getting #N/A and so my column will not total. Is there a different way to do this so that I will be able to sum the mileage total column? Thank you!!

Easier to arrest it at source by using IF(ISNA(...),0, .. error traps
to return zeros for any unmatched cases Downstream calcs will then not be affected by any #N/As resulting from unmatched cases So you could use something like this instead: In A2: =IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet2!A:B,2,0)),0,VLOOKUP(A1, Sheet2!A:B,2,0)) -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 Downloads:20,500 Files:363 Subscribers:64 xdemechanik --- "Christi" wrote: Is it possible to make the end result cells calculate?
