Default Copying absolute VLOOKUP

I have the following formula:

=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP($A3,'HR Feed (HC and
Co-Location)'!$A$3:$R$566,5,FALSE)),"",VLOOKUP($A3,'H R Feed (HC and
Co-Location)'!$A$3:$R$566,5,FALSE))

It is copied across to 8 columns with the appropirate column reference
entered twice in each one.

When I copy the nine cells down, using ^C, Edit/Paste special/Formulas, it
copies the resulting value from the first row, instead of the correct lookup
value. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Thanks

Make sure you recalculate (or set calculation to automatic)

tools|Options|calculation tab

Default Copying absolute VLOOKUP

Hi Martha,

It is copied across to 8 columns with the appropirate column reference

entered twice in each one.

what's your formula in the ninth cell. on the first row?

When I copy the nine cells down,


whats your formula in the ninth cell, on the last row?

with that we can see what is your lookup value and column references.

regards
