i have looked @ answer submitted in excel vlookup #ref error has not resulted in correction of errors
any appreciated
the third argument column want return... there 1 column in range $a2:$a71
can't put 4 argument...
you need =vlookup("activated",$a2:$d71,4,true)
also should use false
last argument, can return next closest match, if use true
.
range_lookup logical value specifies whether want vlookup find exact match or approximate match:
