Hi,
I have read some threads but I am still not clear on how LOOKUP is supposed to work.
I know it cannot function across sheets.
But please can someone provide the syntax and basic data?Thanks,Ele
I finally found this. For some reason the search function did not work).

And I am now again with a problem....when I copy a formula, the range changes...any way to fix it?
Smartsheet's cells allow relative or absolute references.
=Task23
is relative to row 23 in the Task column.
When copied to the row below it, the new formula will reference row 24.
=Task$23
would prevent that - this is an absolute reference to row 23.
Now matter where on the sheet you copy this to, the formula will refence row 23.
=$Task$23
is an absolute reference to the cell at row 23, in the Task column. When copied, the formula will still reference that cell.
($Task23 is also available)
Hope that helps.
Craig
