=NOT(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($D2,$W$39:$X$70,1,FALSE)))

I have this formula in Conditional Formatting. I am looking for it to highlight the matches from W39:X70 but its only reading the data in W39:W70 not in X39:X70

D2 is the first cell in a table that runs from D2 to K70


Thanks,
James

Ambidextrous Undo
Undo last command with Ctrl+Z or Alt+Backspace. If you use the Undo icon in the QAT, open the drop-down arrow to undo up to 100 steps.
seems to be working for me

its only looking up the value in column W
and then highlighting the row - where it finds a matching value

like this
