Mistake and how resurrecting a Vlookup post.

[dingo.xrull]

I made a mistake in this forum.
I posted a question, but when I tried the code I got from the forum it
didn’t work; I proceeded to multi-post on one forum and cross post to
about 3 other forums. I did this because I wanted a quick response.
And I thought if the post was new or slightly different it would
attract more responses.
I found out should not be multi-posting or cross-posting after I able
to check the responses on the Microsoft Office community about 12
hours after.
What can I do to resuscitate my post, and what should I have done
before looking finding another solution or posting to another forum?
I apologize, and I thank Bob Phillips for pointing out that multi-
posting infringement.

The reason for posting this twice was. I couldn’t see the original
post, so I posted again, and the email reply came up blank.

It started here, and I had to modify it to incorporate another lookup.
