Default vlookup instructions,, or help making a formula

in B1 of Sheet2
=VLOOKUP(A1, Sheet1!A:C, 2, False)

....you can also use =VLOOKUP(A1, Sheet1!A:B, 2, False)

and in C1 of Sheet2
=VLOOKUP(A1, Sheet1!A:C, 3, False)

VLLOKUP takes the value in A1, goes to the first Col of lookup range
(Sheet1!A:C), finds a match, moves over to the Col no in the range (2 or 3 in
your case) and returns the value there.

With TRUE lookup values need to be sorted and closest match is returned

What is the value in A1?
It should be one of the values in Col A of Sheet1... and format should be
the same...
You get #N/A when the value is not found.

Since Sheet2 has the data like
1 0015 Applesauce $.04
2 0021 Bagel $.11
3 0045 Bean Garbanzo $.15


A4 on A1 has to have 0015 (assuming both are text values)
If 00 is shown using formatting then formula should work
To test
enter
15 in A4
go to sheet2
Enter 15 in the cell where you have shown 0015 and format that as number
