VLOOKUP across sheets
- Jun 16, 2020
Hi Georgina
The issue was that you were looking up column H:I (2 columns) but wanting to retrieve data from the 7th column - so you were getting the #REF error.
I have changed the range to H:N columns - and then retrieving the data from 7th column - this returns 0 (space). I added a second line and retrieved data from 4th column so you could understand how this work. Hope this helps!

peteryac60 Thank you so much, you have solved all my problems! I have amended the original spreadsheet so that you can now select an HEI Descriptor from a drop-down list, and the selection auto-populates three other cells. Thank you!
