Description mr_stone 2017-04-14 13:59:54 UTC
Description:
My problem is similar to Bug 106575.

In sheet A cell C11 must be 1400 instead of 100.
Maybe it has something to do with the search criterion in VLOOUP, because when I change the text in column B the bug is gone.

I try to attach the affected file and the file after changing column B.


If I got it right, in Bug 106575 the problem was solved with Ctrl-Shift-F9.
But that doesn't help in my case.



Actual Results:  
Wrong value in cell C11

Expected Results:
Right value in cell C11


Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce

The issue is you have forgot the last parameter to work with no sorted list.
C11: =IF(B11="";"";VLOOKUP(B11;Preisliste.$A$1:$B$50;2;0))

Wow! 2 Minutes after my report I got the answer! You are really fast m.a.riosv!

Thank you, you are right, the last value for the sort order was missing in my formular.

But I thought, for the reason that this value is optional, that I don't need it in this case.
That the search criterion doesn't have to be exactly the same value, I didn't know. (I have learned that right now in your link to the help: "Sorted columns can be searched much faster and the function always returns a value, even if the search value was not matched exactly, if it is between the lowest and highest value of the sorted list.")

That was my confusion.

Thanks for your help!
