yes. Just type your search value in the vlookup, then click the columns you
want in your search on the other workbook.

Do you mean if "search value" is in a3 in sh1 of book1 then, =VLOOKUP("search
value",[Book1]Sheet1!A:A,1,0) will return "a3"? But when I tried, It does not
return a3 which I want.
