When I do VLOOKUP from another sheet, the resulting data is not searchable to the current sheet where I have the VLOOKUP formula. Why is this and what's the workaround? Please help.

Copy formula down without changing references
If you have =SUM(F2:F49) in F50; type Alt+' in F51 to copy =SUM(F2:F49) to F51, leaving the formula in edit mode. Change SUM to COUNT.
Might help as well to post a sample of your data and the formula you are using.

I think what rsortilla meant was not being able to get the search result on "VLOOKUP result". I ran into the same problem as well. Please help!

For exmaple, the Vlookup result returned a text " Pineapple orange", when you do a CTRL F to find the word "Pineapple" in the same spreadsheet ,Excel couldn't find it.

Need a workaround here.

Thanks in advance
