Because VLOOKUP frequently get confused by numbers ... it doesn't know
whether to look for a number or a string. -- Vasant "Tobor" wrote in message ... Can anyone tell why vlook can find a part number with 7-777-01 but cannot find a part number 89123876 when both are used in the same speadsheet? |

up as though it were a number. Alan Beban Tobor wrote: Can anyone tell why vlook can find a part number with 7-777-01 but cannot find a part number 89123876 when both are used in the same speadsheet? |
