Default VLOOKUP

Your return from col: 49
exceeds the number of cols straddled in your table_array:
'WPS Detail Dates'!$B:$AT
since cols B to AT = 45 cols only

Fix one or the other of the above params,
and it should work ok

aloha? punch it, click the YES button below

Default VLOOKUP

Either extend the table array, eg:
=VLOOKUP($B8,'WPS Detail Dates'!$B:$AZ,49,FALSE)
(assuming the col index: 49 is correct)

Or, re-examine whether the column index: 49 is correct?
If its supposed to be say: 39, then this should be ok:
=VLOOKUP($B8,'WPS Detail Dates'!$B:$AT,39,FALSE)
(assuming the table array: 'WPS Detail Dates'!$B:$AT is correct)
