vlookup时无效的单元格引用错误？

Question

1. Need to look up values under column A of sheet1 and match it with values under Column A of sheet2.
2. If matches , Return the corresponding value under column B of sheet1 as result .
3. Display the result under column C of sheet 2.

I came up with below vlookup formula and apply it on column C of sheet 2 but it gives error Invalid Cell Reference Error

=VLOOKUP(Sheet1!A:A,A:A,Sheet1!B:B,FALSE)

Answer 1

Your VLOOKUP syntax looks seriously off to me. It should be something like this:

=VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet2!A2:B100,2,FALSE)

This assumes that:

• You are entering this formula into cell B2 on Sheet1
• Your data begins at row 2 of Sheet1 (if not, adjust A2 to whatever it needs to be)
• Sheet2 has the lookup data also starting in A2 , and the value is in column B

Answer 2

In the column c of Sheet2 use this vlookup formula.For example in Sheet2, cell c2 if you paste this formula. =VLOOKUP(A2,Sheet1!A:B,2,FALSE)

The formula will look for the value in cell A2 of Sheet2 in Column A of sheet1 and return the corresponding value in columnB(exact match)of Sheet1 to Cell c2 in sheet2.

Hope this helps!
