VLOOKUP Error Hacks: Troubleshoot Like an Excel Expert | 4 Different Methods| |Santhu Analytics|

#Excel# #VLOOKUP# #DifferentMethod#

1. #N/A Error
Cause:
• The lookup value is not found in the first column of the lookup range.
• Data mismatch (e.g., text vs. number or extra spaces in the data).
Solution:
• Ensure the lookup value exists in the first column of the lookup range.
• Clean the data using TRIM() or CLEAN() to remove unwanted spaces or characters.
• Use IFERROR() to handle errors gracefully:
2. #REF! Error
Cause:
• The column index number provided in the VLOOKUP function exceeds the number of columns in the lookup range.
• The referenced range has been deleted.
Solution:
• Check the column index and ensure it is within the bounds of the lookup range.
• Use dynamic range references or named ranges to prevent broken references.
3. #VALUE! Error
Cause:
• The column index number provided is not a valid number (e.g., a text or a formula returning a non-numeric value).
• Invalid arguments in the VLOOKUP syntax.
Solution:
• Ensure the column index is a positive integer:
4. #NAME? Error
Cause:
• The VLOOKUP function is misspelled.
• Quotation marks around the lookup value are missing (for text values).
Solution:
• Verify the function's spelling and ensure text lookup values are enclosed in quotes:

1. VLOOKUP in the Same Sheet
When your data and lookup table are on the same worksheet, VLOOKUP works within the same tab.

2. VLOOKUP in a Different Sheet
When your data and lookup table are on different worksheets, you specify the sheet name in the formula.

3. VLOOKUP in a Different Workbook
When your data and lookup table are in different workbooks, you reference the workbook name and sheet name in the formula. The external workbook must be open for the formula to work correctly.
