VLOOKUP true and false

✭✭✭
edited 01/05/23 in Formulas and Functions

Hi all,

I have a problem with a formula that I am using. I'm trying to retrieve a value using VLOOKUP. I have around 2800 entries within the lookup table and retrieving the second column. When it returns the value most of the data is correct but others bring back #NO MATCH. When I change the match type to false I am able to retrieve the values for the cells that previously said #NO MATCH but the others change to #NO MATCH.

I have also noticed the #NO MATCH entries all start with a number???
