Expected result (formula cells being bold):
SHEET 1 | SHEET 2 | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
Key | Expected value | Key | Misc data | Expected value |
12 | C | 10 | asd | A |
14 | E | 11 | asd | B |
10 | A | 12 | asd | C |
13 | asd | D | ||
14 | asd | E |
The formula I'm trying to use is
=LOOKUP(A2,'Sheet2'!$A$2:$A,'Sheet2'!$C$2:$C)
When I use this on a single sheet (tab) then it works as intended. However as soon as I'm trying to get data from another sheet, it fails with:
Error Did not find value 'KEY' in LOOKUP evaluation.
CodePudding user response:
The issue was with the key columns holding values with different data types (number vs plain text). After setting both to same data type, the formula started working.
