IF(VLOOKUP("MYDATA", MYNAME, 4) = 0, "TRUE", "FALSE")
I have following code to check does MYDATA retrun 0 from index 4.
I got false result, even I have return value is 0. IF(VLOOKUP("MYDATA", MYNAME, 4) = 0, "TRUE", "FALSE") Am I right? If mydata return value zero if should execute "TRUE", It executea "FALSE" if it return non zero value. Please let me know if I am wrong. Any infromation is great appreciated, |

Hi Souris,
IF(VLOOKUP("MYDATA", MYNAME, 4) = 0, "TRUE", "FALSE") try using the fourth lookup parameter which determines if an exact match is to be returned: IF(VLOOKUP("MYDATA", MYNAME, 4,0) = 0, "TRUE", "FALSE") If the fourth parameter is omitted, an approximate match is returned. See Excel help on VLookup for assistance with this additional parameter. --- Regards, Norman "Souris" wrote in message ... I have following code to check does MYDATA retrun 0 from index 4.
