My Excel formula is using my text as a cell range.

I am trying to have my formula look up my value. The problem is my text
value appears to be a cell range, for example "a75-s209". A75-s209 is a
model number that we sell. I tried to use an apostrophe, as well as
quotation marks. I could not get either one to function properly
=VLOOKUP(Inventory!"a75-s209",Inventory!A2:B74,2)
 
N

Aeryn,
If it is text, then it is not on WS Inventory as such, so use;
=VLOOKUP("a75-s209",Inventory!A2:B74,2)

Thank you so much!! Almost perfect. How do I tell it to only return an exact
match when it searches for a value?
