Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
oooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhh


Done with =value(extract ............


solved my problem.

To further explain...
In VLOOKUP, the items you are matching on MUST be the same data type (i.e. both numeric or both text).
Numbers entered as text will not match up with numbers entered as numbers.
What sheetspread showed you was how to convert from one to the other, if they are not aligned.
