Thanks for the reply,

I was starting to believe that I'm the only one having that issue :)

One year later and I still haven't found a solution to this.. I also thought about the 'formatting issue' you mentioned but I'm not sure what you mean about the page id number.. what is that id and how it can affect vlookup?

You are having the same issue that many people are experiencing. The answer should be simple, but it is NOT. I have a few people looking at this issue and we hope to discover a solution!

I only mentioned the page id because Microsoft Excel VLOOKUP Refersher mentions getting the name correct; which of course I have done. Agree the name ID is not the problem! I was just looking for a solution.

Hopefully someone with reply and tell us the issue with our VLOOKUP formula!
