Default hlookup help

Hi All

What is wrong with the following formula
=HLOOKUP(Diary!$H$24,'Promoters costs and sales'!C1:DR11,11,0)

Its function is to use the date in Diary!H24, look for that date in
worksheet 'Promoters costs and sales'! range C1 Thru DR11 and when it finds
return the number in row 11

All help gratfully received

Thanks

Stew

The lookup date should be available in the 1st row of the array. Are you sure
the lookupdate is available in row1 (C1:DR1)

If this post helps click Yes

Check that you have an exact match in Row 1... that there are no extra
spaces, that spelling is the same, etc... also if you are matching
number to number, ensure that both H24 and row 1 are the same format.

Hi

Shouldn't it be C1:DR1? try
=HLOOKUP(Diary!$H$24,'Promoters costs and sales'!C1:DR1,11,0)

You need to make sure that the value in the first row are the same
data type in the dataset below. ie first row = real dates and dataset = real
dates,
otherwise its won't works.

If it is indeed HLOOKUP the OP is wanting, then the original formula is
correct... it looks up values in C1:DR1 and returns what is in C11:DR11
of corresponding column...
