VLookup formula transposing table_array when copied to another cel
I'm using the VLookup formula on a table with hundreds of rows of data.
Obviously, I don't want to enter the formla manually on each row; but when copying the formula to subsequent rows, it transposes the lookup_value (which I want) AND the table_array (which I don't want). So instead of looking for the value in the array of A1:B423 on the cell where I copied the formula to, the array becomes A2:B424. |

Use absolute reference such as in your formula and copy that down
$A$1:$B$423 Below are the different reference styles. A1 Relative referencing. Both column and row will change if you copy or drag the formula. $A1 The column reference is fixed and will not change A$1 The row reference is fixed and will not change. $A$1 Column and row reference are fixed.
