VLOOKUP-How do I get answers pulled from different appropriate col

R

rOn

I am trying to use VLOOKUP function to pull shipping cost from different Zone
columns (1-6) based on weights from a NAMED chart. I set the formula like
this:
=VLOOKUP(5-the weight, Shipping-the chart, 2-the column that would give me
the correct answer for this weight and zone, then TRUE). I can't copy the
formula to the rest of the column to give me the correct values. Please help.
What am I doing wrong?

if
=vlookup(5,$a$2:$x$33,2,false) works
then your range is named yourtable
=vlookup(5,yourtable,2,0) works

My guess is that in the first parameter to the function you are sending a
cell reference rather than a fixed value. Can you put down the exact formua
in the cell which is giving the correct result?
