Vlookup Cell Turned Red - without a red conditional format!

Christina Riley

So weird. I can't figure out how to turn it off without adding another conditional formatting.

I used Vlookup, and it is returning the information in RED.

(cropped to remove personal info)

But there is NO conditional formatting telling the cell to turn red. It's baffling.

What gives?

Also, it's only doing this to the vlookup cells in that column. I have earlier rows that don't have the vlookup applied an those are normal white background.

Hi @criley08

Have you checked, so the cells aren’t manually colored?

Was that the issue?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Nope, it' only turns color with the vlookup applied
