Hello everybody

is there a way to make an excel file quicker?

I took this file over from another person and it has many vlookups.
My guess is vlookup could be the reason for this.

Example of formulas:
=VLOOKUP($C179985,'Mapping for Salary Tracker'!$A$2:$A$48,1,FALSE)
=IFERROR((VLOOKUP(RIGHT($A179985,7),'Mapping for Salary Tracker'!$L:$M,2,FALSE)),"-")
=IFERROR((VLOOKUP(RIGHT($A179985,7),'Mapping for Salary Tracker'!$O:$P,2,FALSE)),"-")
=IFERROR((VLOOKUP(RIGHT($A179985,7),'Mapping for Salary Tracker'!$S:$T,2,FALSE)),"-")
=VLOOKUP(VALUE(A179985),Sheet2!$A:$C,3,0)

thanks for the feedback
 
Is there a way to create a macro that sorts column O to a specific name between the 7 names I have and then copy from column A to K into a new excel sheet?
