vlookup still gives na
We are trying to manipulate numbers using vlookup, approximately 4,300
records using the formula below: =VLOOKUP(B2,'Tier 1'!A:A:'Tier 1'!E:E,5,FALSE) There is one total property spreadsheet and 3 other tabs. About 1,500 records are coming back NA. Any suggestions on what might be happening?? It looks like a formula problem! |

you need to USe $ signs..
=VLOOKUP(B2,'Tier 1'!$A:$A:'Tier 1'!$E:$E,5,FALSE) if you are still getting NA is because there are missing data in where you are doing the lookup. you can get rid of that by using and iserror() formula.

Are you sure that the value in B2 is in column A of Tier 1? That is what
#N/A usually means, or that column E contains a #N/A. -- HTH RP (remove nothere from the email address if mailing direct) "mayoslc" wrote in message ...

You mention if I still get the NA errot to use the iserror () formula. What is that? I am still getting NA's.

I am trying to compare column B in worksheet called "Data" to the data on worksheet called "Tier 1" using column E and column F. Part of the information is being pulled over but I have about 25% that comes up NA. "Bob Phillips" wrote: Are you sure that the value in B2 is in column A of Tier 1?

I would think this syntax would be more common:
=VLOOKUP(B2,'Tier 1'!A:E,5,FALSE) And Debra Dalgleish has some troubleshooting tips at: http://www.contextures.com/xlFunctions02.html#Trouble mayoslc wrote: We are trying to manipulate numbers using vlookup, approximately 4,300 records using the formula below: =VLOOKUP(B2,'Tier 1'!A:A:'Tier 1'!E:E,5,FALSE) There is one total property spreadsheet and 3 other tabs.

What's in B2?
In fact, find that cell in Tier 1 column A that looks like it should be a match. Put this in an empty cell of the sheet with the formula. =b2='tier 1'!Axx If that returns false, then there is a difference between what's in B2 and what is in that cell that you think should match.

First, this is the formula that I wanted in a separate cell:
=b2='tier 1'!Axx And change xx to match the row where you think B2 matched.

Dave:
More information. B2 has property name text on a worksheet called Dwaynes List. Worksheet 2 is called Tier 1. In column A on this worksheet I have the same property name. I am trying to compare property names and pull in orders listed in column E of the same worksheet. I use your formula =b2='tier 1'!A2 to compare property names and I get a FALSE reply.

Does A2 on "Tier 1" look like it should match B2?
If you think it should match and you get False, then there is a difference between what's in those cells. Again, did you look at Debra's site? What's the value in B2--what's the actual property name? If it's text, then look for differences--spelling, extra spaces. In fact, copy B2 and paste it in your reply on a separate line. Then paste what you think should be the matching cell in column A of the Tier 1 sheet. mayoslc wrote: Dave: More information. B2 has property name text on a worksheet called Dwaynes List.

If it's not there, then you won't find a match.
You can stop the errors from showing up: =if(iserror(VLOOKUP(B2,'Tier 1'!A:E,5,FALSE)),"", VLOOKUP(B2,'Tier 1'!A:E,5,FALSE)) (all one cell) but you can't find a match if there is no match. mayoslc wrote: Dave: No, is there a work around?

Much appreciated. Your new formula worked "to a Tea"!!!! Kraig "Dave Peterson" wrote: If it's not there, then you won't find a match. You can stop the errors from showing up: =if(iserror(VLOOKUP(B2,'Tier 1'!A:E,5,FALSE)),"", VLOOKUP(B2,'Tier 1'!A:E,5,FALSE)) (all one cell) but you can't find a match if there is no match. mayoslc wrote: Dave: No, is there a work around?

Glad it worked for you.
I was under the misunderstanding that you actually had matches for those entries--not just that you wanted to hide the error value. mayoslc wrote: Dave: Much appreciated.
