too many arguments error message in excel
I am trying to use a lookup formula in excel and it was working fine until I
entered FALSE on the end, at whcih p[oint it tells me I have too many arguments. This is the formula: =LOOKUP(A4,'C:\Documents and Settings\temp\My Documents\[AE prices for spares.xls]Sheet1'!$B:$B,'C:\Documents and Settings\temp\My Documents\[AE prices for spares.xls]Sheet1'!$D:$D, FALSE) Is there a way around this? Any help would be appreciated guys. Thanks |

too many arguments error message in excel
Why have you added FALSE on the end ?
What are you trying to achieve by it ? The LOOKUP function does not take this extra parameter, hence the error. VLOOKUP & HLOOKUP take a parameter of TRUE or FLASE at the end.
