Well, first of all you can post your formula.
But without that, here are some things to consider: if you have something like this: =VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet1!A$1:F$100,2,0) then when you copy to the right it will become: =VLOOKUP(B2,Sheet1!B$1:G$100,2,0) so you will need to anchor the column references in the formula, like this: =VLOOKUP($A2,Sheet1!$A$1:$F$100,2,0) However, you also need the 3rd parameter to change as you copy it across, and you can achieve this by using the COLUMN function. So, that formula would become: =VLOOKUP($A2,Sheet1!$A$1:$F$100,COLUMN(B1),0) and then you can copy this 4 columns to the right (as the table is only defined to column F). Hope this helps.
