I am working with the Excel Template "Class Roster". This is a preset template provided. When I enter the student list it will pull over into the classes tab provided perfectly for the first 3 students then it will pull random data for any remaining students. Is this an error with the template formulas? I am not adjusting or changing any formulas, only entering information into the table.

    Can you provide us the template you're using? We have no way of seeing whatever formulas are being used.

    Hi @Monica Annaert

    Based on my tests, the vlookup formula to find the email address is corret.

    First, on Class Roster sheet, please make sure the student name is selected correctly from the drop down list.

    Then select one cell that include vlookup formula to find email address, put the cursor on the lower-right corner of the cell, there will be a symbol of the black cross, click the mouse and drop down. The formula will apply to new created students.
