Hi,

Thanks for the great explanation of the vlookup function.
I was wondering if you think excel would be quicker at returning a vlookup result if it were numerical vs. alphanumerical ?

I’m designing a vlookup that is based on a number of factors and wondered if using a lookup like 1_2_3 would be slower than if I looked up a large integer ?

Love the site !
Thanks again

I am not able to use this function for a ‘simple’ need.
My Spreadsheet has this information:
Col A = Item Code, Col B = Size code,
Col C = Order Item Code, Col D = Order Qty.

Item Codes can be alpha-numeric – 1407, 1407A, 14077, etc.
so I formatted Col A and Col C as Text.

I want to populate in Col E the size code for the Item on the Order.

Using Vlookup in Cell E2, I have =Vlookup(C2,A2:B300,2,FALSE)

But it does not work. I either get N/A# or a wrong Size code in Col E

Any suggestions / Advise?
Thanks

I have a question. I would like to look up a part number on a customer order. The left column is the customer order and in column 3 is the part number. A problem arrises when there are multiple part numbers on a Customer Order. How can I first look up the customer order, then with in that order, look up a specific part number? Thank you very much for your help.
