Hi there, Can anyone explain why using vlookup would seem to be so resource heavy?

T Toppers Mar 29, 2007 #2 Take a look here and see if there is anything you can apply to your situation. The performance is dependent on the number and type of VLOOKUP e.g exact matches take longer than approximate matches.. http://www.decisionmodels.com/optspeede.htm
