Thanks Dale,

Trust Al's version.  It looks like the changes I made also changed the
results of the LOOKUP function.  I'll go thru the steps for the
examples you provided and see if I can figure out where mine is going
wrong.  It won't be right away, maybe in a day or two.

Try widening the column for the '######' answer.  That's usually an
indication the number is too large for the space.
