I am trying to do a vlookup on another sheet which contains an external data query. The result of the lookup is #N/A eventhough I know that there is a valid match there.
For the moment I am working around this by copy the lookup reference from the external query to the destination sheet, which allows for the lookup to work. This however is too much maintenance work when new data is required to be looked up on.
I have seen on the microsoft website that there is an article (315961) which provides a couple of solutions such as trunc within the vlookup. I have tried these and they still don't work. The only solution that works is hard coding the value into the vlookup statement
Can anybody help me?
