Excel IF ISNA Vlookup

I've been trying to get cell with formula

 =IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(G2,$S$2:$S$20000,1,FALSE)),U1,"")

What i'm trying to get is : I have column with Reference number on G2 and I have a lot of details in column S . I need to find that G2 Value in S column and return B2 cell from row that G2 value was found.

It worked with other data but now i'm combining 2 separate data sheets and I cannot find the problem.

Because the data you are wanting to return from column G is Left of your look up column S, you will need to use =Index(Match()) pattern instead of =Vlookup (which is limited in that it requires your lookup data to be Right of your lookup column).

In your case the following should work:

=INDEX(B:B, MATCH(G2,S:S,0), 1)
