Excel: vlookup - Matrix - Name not being a Name

Hi all,

 

I have the following formula:

VLOOKUP(E36,Program_Comments,78,FALSE)

 

The term "Program_Comments" seems to refer to 2 adjacent cells in the same row, if I click on it.

But "Program_Comments" is NOT a name (= not contained in list of Name Manager).

 

What can it be then?

 

See attached file. The whole formula is in cell H8 (tab "Outlook")

 

Kind regards,

Joachim
