Help with formula: finding text
Hi,
I would like to ask for help with a formula for comparing name in a cell with a list of names in a table. If there is a match it should return a associated text to the matched name from the table. If no match it should just leave the cell blank. Thanks in advance Jonas

Help with formula: finding text
Hi, Thanks but I tend to get "Missing" (or "Saknas" in Swedish) in some cell
which should not be (i.e. there should be a match). Jonas "Eva" skrev: Hi =VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet2!A:B,2,FALSE) -- Please click "yes" if this post helped you!
