vlookup & subtotals

[martin]

I have a vlookup formula of =VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet1!
$A$7:$K$10157,11,FALSE) & it works nicely BUT sheet 1 is a
list of data that is "subtotals" thru "data" & it is not
picking up these particular figures.

I do not know how to pick these up nor do I know how to
just list the subtotals so that the formula would work.

Any suggestions?

I'm not sure what's in A2, but if you want to retrieve the values in the
subtotal row, then this might work:

When you look at sheet1, you'll see your headers in column A. but on the
subtotal line, they look like:

CustomerNameHere Total

So if A1 contained just the customernamehere, you could do this:
=vlookup(a2&" total", sheet1!$a$7:$k10157,11,false)

You may even want to play around with Data|Pivottables. You can get these
subtotals out pretty easily and then use that for your =vlookup() formulas.
