Sorry I left this go so long. Widowed dad juggling things!

I just successfully duplicated this bug(?).  I just realized this if probably
not a bug if vlookup is intended to return the first line *before* a value if
there is not an exact match.

Here is an example table:
      A            B         C
1   A100002     100002    A100002 
2   A100003     100003    A100003 
3   A100004     100004    A100004 
4   A100005     100005    A100005 
5   A100006     100006    A100006 

The problem I percieved was if there were spaces after data in the first column
then the following happened

The formula =VLOOKUP("A100003",A1:C5,3)
returns A100002

But the formula =VLOOKUP("A100003 ",A1:C5,3)
with space after A100003 returns A100003

I actually think this is intentional because lookup key, when it has a trailing
space, is not an exact match.  I will leave this "notabug." and apologized for
the confusion.
