I have such a struggle with this formula. I've looked in Help and Online in
MS, but to no avail. It still remains a mystery! I have this formula that
works for one cell only, not for the column:
=VLOOKUP($U$2,$D$2:$E$5000,2,FALSE). It picks up the first number in the E
column correctly, but when I drag it down, it simply repeats that number.
What gives? Why won't it continue to look for others?
To further explain: In cell U2 is a name. I want to search that name
within the range D25000 (which appears very often) and return the number
for that name listed in range E2:E5000 (which number will quite often vary).
Obviously my formula isn't quite right. Hope I get E for Effort, at least!!
But the correct formula would be better! Thank you! Connie
