Dear All,

I have two sheets. I have used vlookup to find out the correct match but it's updating with wrong values.

Comparing vaues from sheet tagist1 to dba_tagitest, gives wrong values.
Attatcments are attached.

i tried that also but it's not updating correct values.
 
Ideally, for the VLOOKUP you would want column C to be your primary sort and the Range_lookup to be FALSE so that you get an exact match. Something like this:

=VLOOKUP(C1,'[dba_tagitest@192.168.39.152.xlsx]Sheet1'!$C$1:$D$2800,2,FALSE)

However, if that type of sorting is not available, and INDEX and MATCH formula should do the trick. Try this:

=INDEX('[dba_tagitest@192.168.39.152.xlsx]Sheet1'!$D:$D, MATCH(C1,'[dba_tagitest@192.168.39.152.xlsx]Sheet1'!$C:$C,0))

Let me know how it goes.
