Is there a way to vlookup and keep format?
Hi, I'm looking for a way to do vlookup, and I want to keep the format in argument 3 (where argument 3 in "=vlookup(A2,MyLookup,2,0)" is "2") -- farful ------------------------------------------------------------------------ farful's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=36172 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=561591 |

Nope... VLookup is a function and functions can ONLY return values. They can
not modify formats or other settings. This is just as true of built in functions as it is of user defined functions... -- HTH...

Not using a formula - you'd have to use VBA to search for the match and copy/paste the return value
