Default How to merge worksheets on a key - merge horizontally, that is

Watch your typing <bg.

=VLOOKUP(A1,sheet1:A:B,1,FALSE)
should be
=VLOOKUP(A1,sheet1!A:B,2,FALSE)
or
=VLOOKUP(A1,'sheet 1'!A:B,2,FALSE)
(single quotes maybe required depending on the name of that sheet)

And you want that 3rd parm to be 2--you're bringing back the value in the second
column in that range (A:B on sheet1).

In Sheet 2, Column C I add the formula:

=VLOOKUP(A1,sheet1:A:B,1,FALSE)

This results in #NAME?

Is there a solution that doesn't require drag-filling?
