I'm having some issues using named ranges in formulas in excel from Microsoft Office 365 Business. This is something that I used to do constantly a few years ago, but now I stumped as to what I'm doing wrong... I'm assuming some functionality has changed with a later version of excel, but would like to check.
I have a vlookup
for example like VLOOKUP($D11, $A$2:$B$14, 2, 0)
that I would like to change to use a named range in the table array, for example like VLOOKUP($D11, LookupTable, 2, 0)
.
The line VLOOKUP($D11, LookupTable, 2, 0)
however returns an error "There's problem with this formula. Not trying to type a formula...".
I've checked that the formula without the named range is working fine + that the named range itself has been set on the correct columns and that the scope of range is set to the workbook.
The error message suggests to me that the range isn't being resolved and is just being treated as a character string? (I've tried a few things like to specify the sheet as well > Lookups!LookupTable but still same issue)
=VLOOKUP($D11; LookupTable; 2; 0)
? – user4039065=VLOOKUP($D11| LookupTable| 2| 0)
– Sam Gilbert=UNICODE(A1)
with the list separator in A1 to make sure it is 124. Repeat for the | you are using in the formula. – user4039065
