Hi people much smarter than me!
I was hoping someone could help me! I have a cell containing a product weight, in one sheet. I have a table in a different sheet consisting of 2 columns: Weight Not Over (grams) Mailing Price 60 £0.31 100 £0.48 150 £0.66 What I am trying to achieve is, when my cell containing product weight has a value i want to look in my table and return the correct mailing price. I have used the Vlookup function to get as far as i have, but i am not getting the results i expect. For my example my Product weight is 65 so the value i am looking to be returned is £0.48. Unfortunately the result I am having returned is £0.31! Here is my formula: =VLOOKUP(G3,'Royal Mail Lookup Table'!A2:B33,2) Where G3 is my Product weight of 65 and A2:B33 is my table. The Weight Not Over column in my table is obviously a group of numbers, and i can't for the life of me figure out what i need to do to make my formula return the correct result! I can't work out the boundarys in my weight not over column as if my product weight was 60.00001 it would still have to return £0.48. I know that if the range_lookup is TRUE or omitted, an exact or approximate match is returned. If an exact match is not found, the next largest value that is less than lookup_value is returned. Which won't really return the value that i want... but how would i get the formula to return a value less than or equal to the group that is weight not over column is bound by. Any help would be greatly appreciated! |
