Now I can see your example, another way is to insert a new column D in
sheet B and in D1 enter this formula:


=A1&B1&C1


and copy this down for as many entries as you have (you can hide the
column if you want to). Your VLOOKUP formula in sheet A will now be
something like:


=VLOOKUP(A1&B1&C1,SheetB!D$1:E$100,2,0)


and can be copied down as required.


Hope this helps.

THis is my example
Spreadsheet A


Column A Column B Column C Column D
1 RACK A Room 1 Panel 1 DEVICEA
2 RACK A Room 1 Panel 2 DEVICEB


Spreadsheet B


RACK A Room 1 Panel 1 DEVICEA
RACK A Room 1 Panel 2 DEVICEB


So on spreadsheet A i would only enter RACKA and it would look in
Spreadsheet B and automatically enter Room 1 (as these were predefined).
When i input Panel 2 it should look at the rack and panel and then input
DEVICE in spreadsheet A. My problem is when i use the same VLOOKUP formula
and copy it to my spreadsheet A it keeps looking up device on the 1st line of
the spreadsheet B. - Hide quoted text -
