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!
You have to create that reference in the little drop-down data that appears while typing in your formula. Then you will select your range and finish the formula.
See screenshot below for reference.

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.

Hello, I deal with a lot of batch/lot numbers that are automatically generated and start with leading zeros (e.g. 000012345). I'm trying to create a column simply to count the instances of a lot number within the column in order to quickly identify duplicates. The formula I have is =COUNTIF([Lot Number]:[Lot Number],[Lot…
