    Turn an Excel Vlookup Formula into a Macro

    Hi All

    I wrote an excel formula using vlookup, I added in a conditional statement so the formula would not display N/A. Here is the formula:

    =IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A2,'T:\EHS\Chemical Inventory\2011\2011 Chemical Inventory Final+Cost Center\[Hazard Table.xls]Hazardous Chemicals'!$A$4:$B$488,2,FALSE)),"", (VLOOKUP(A2,'T:\EHS\Chemical Inventory\2011\2011 Chemical Inventory Final+Cost Center\[Hazard Table.xls]Hazardous Chemicals'!$A$4:$B$488,2,FALSE)))

    I would like to put this into a Macro so I could add a button to make it easier to use because I have to use this frequently with thousands of chemicals that come in every day.

    Hello Steve,

    Welcome to the Forum!

    Here is the formula converted to a macro. The macro assumes "A2" is on the active worksheet, the code in the workbook named "Hazard Table.xls", and the look up sheet is named "Hazardous Chemicals".
