Vlookup
Reason for problem is that 'Other' is not in alphabetical order, I you moved it to before 'Sony' in the list, it should work properly without the FALSE. -- ANDYGM ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ANDYGM's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...fo&userid=3452 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=530932 |
