VLOOKUP should compare numbers stored as text to plain numbers.
I wish there was an option with VLOOKUP so you could tell it to treat numbers
stored as text and plain text numbers the same. The problem I run into is when I convert numbers stored as text to numbers I may have a 00956 and a 956 which are two different quantities but are treated the same when I convert them and the vlookup will return the wrong info. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.
