Ghost in my VLOOKUP
Wow, I have setup a VLOOKUP to search through a tabel of 7 columns x about 15
rows, and to match a string of Alpha-Numeric values, e.g. "BXZ678GP" - but I am getting all sorts of weird random results! I have checked and checked again...all seems in order, are there any secrets to using VLOOKUP? I look at this problem and cant beleive that I am seeing this. Please help. Can I post an example databse somewhere?

Ghost in my VLOOKUP
--Check whether the last argument of vlookup is set to FALSE (0)
--Check whether the actual entry in your database contains any additional space or -invisible characters after/before --Make sure the array range is mentioned and the column number specified is within the array range. Still you are unable to resolve; post your formula and explain the data layout..
