Can't seem to get this code to work correctly...

=VLOOKUP(Weekly Data'! COUNTIF(M2:M256,"W*")

Any help would be appreciated.

What are you trying to accomplish? Can't quite see where the VLOOKUP fits in
there.

More information is needed. VLOOKUP requires at least two arguments, and the
role of COUNTIF(M2:M256,"W*") in this process is completely obscure.
Describe in words what you are trying to do and how the data is layed out.

You want the result from the formula that is in the page called weekly data?
or you want the formula in your current sheet but to look up the data in
Weekly Data?

Perhaps this is what you want?
=COUNTIF(Weekly Data!A1:A5,"W*")

Thanks guys I figured it out. The sheet name Weekly Data was conflicting with
the code I just removed the word Data and the code works correctly.

Thanks again!
