    There's no error in your workbook...can you make a sample and post it again?

    Re: How to remove Error

    Your sheet contain only one formula which is =RIGHT(A2,5). This extracts 5 digits number from right of the string in A2. As a result the number in col. B is a number stored as text so you can not use it as it is if the lookup column in Vlookup contain real numbers not numbers stored as text (though there are possible adjustment in the Vlookup formula to deal with this kind of situation).
    So if you want these extracted numbers as real numbers you may try this.....

    =RIGHT(A2,5)+0
    If this is not what you are trying to achieve, please be more specific about the error you are talking about.
