What is in Column B on Sheet2? And did you type that formula here or
copy it from the workbook? Because it looks like the sheet reference
is bad, unless your file is really named "Sheet2".

Ok Sheet 2 is my bounce back emails (the bad emails) Column B is empty of
Bounceback sheet. I have emptied column B of my high priority sheet too to
give me a place to bring back the value. I have no clue...
=VLOOKUP(bouncebacks!A1:A1199,A3:A5763,2,FALSE)

Try this one

Col B 1 - "High Priority"sheet put this formula

=IF(ISNA(MATCH(A1,Sheet2!$A$1:$A$199,0)),"good","b ad")

Well, neither of those VLOOKUPs were set up properly. And they looked
to that 2nd column, so even if it found a match, it would return a
blank from your empty column.

But vlookup isn't really what you want anyway. I think muddan's
formula should help. Then you can Sort on column B and easily delete
all the Bad lines. If that is what you are trying to do.

It looks like this is alot closer to what I need. but it is just returning a
value of good in col B 1.
