hi everyone
I have a problem to solve with name range and I ask for help.
I have 3 name ranges, a cell for question (J2), and other to answer (M2), and i would like to use VLOOKUP like above, but it shows N/A.
I think that there are a diferentent way to solve that.
Please, let me ask for your help
thank you
