Ineed to know how to get data from one page to another i am using employee name and hrs worked on first sheet, i want to get the hourly rate from the second sheet which list employee name and pay rates then i want excel to calculate hourly rate times hrs worked should i use vlookup or what?
 

Excel Facts

What is the shortcut key for Format Selection?
Ctrl+1 (the number one) will open the Format dialog for whatever is selected.
yes vlookup is the way to go, i use it for exactly the same purpose you described.

Formula would be something along the lines of: VLOOKUP(a3,Sheet2!$a$2:$b$21,2,FALSE)

Hope that helps
