I'm new to Smartsheets and I'm trying to figure out how to do an IF([Response]3="Yes", VLookup formula linked to a reference data sheet. I've tried various ways to input and always get Unparseable. Any help is appreciated!

Try troubleshooting by comparing your lookup to the instructions found on the function post itself. Or the limitations as seen on the second article.
Those might give you some clues as to how you should set it up.

Formula was flowing correctly, but some change seems to have partially broken the pull but I can't figure out what/how. "Project" column dropdown is linked to a Master sheet.
