    Please supply a desensitized version of your spreadsheet. There could be 100 reasons it isn't returning anything.

    Is it looking from left to right and not right to left?

    Re: Vlook up return no data

    Try changing to

    =IFERROR(VLOOKUP($B2,Sheet2!$C$2:$C$39,1,FALSE),"")

    =IFERROR(VLOOKUP($B2,Sheet2!$B$2:$C$39,1,FALSE),"") is trying to find "adnan" in a column that is all numbers.

    Edit It appears you are trying to return ID numbers. VLOOKUP searches left to right. You are trying to work this right to left.

    You need INDEX/MATCH for this. It is more flexible.

    Try

    =IFERROR(INDEX(Sheet2!$B$3:$B$39,MATCH($B2,Sheet2!$C$2:$C$39,0)),"")
