vlookup
I have a 12 digit number in one area and doing the vlookup seems to be only
looking at the first 6 and rouding at that point. I need the lookup to look at the entire 12 characters and do a match on all 12. |

Take a look at VLOOKUP In XL Help, you need to set the range_lookup
argument to FALSE, e.g.: =VLOOKUP(A1,J:K,2,FALSE) In article , lloyd wrote: I have a 12 digit number in one area and doing the vlookup seems to be only looking at the first 6 and rouding at that point. I need the lookup to look at the entire 12 characters and do a match on all 12. |

Are both the vlookup table, and the cell you are looking at of the same
format? Just a thought. -- Best Regards, Luke M "lloyd" wrote: I am new to this so just checking to see if this was received "lloyd" wrote: When I do text formatting it appearing as 12452145E12 "Don Guillett" wrote: Above 9 try formatting as text -- Don Guillett Microsoft MVP Excel SalesAid Software "lloyd" wrote in message ...

Post your formula and a sample of 12-digit numbers.
Also, how are the 12-digit numbers produced?
