I am trying to extract text from a worksheet within the same workbook to create a summary worksheet. In using the below formula, if the reference cell is not on the same row in both worksheets, the formula stops working on that respective row and all below rows. How can I correct this?

=IF('CIV-VACANT DETAIL'!$D:$D=$D15,'CIV-VACANT DETAIL'!$J:$J,"")

The 'vlookup' function might help, too, but would probably require an intermediate step or two.

The absolute and relative reference changes didn't do anything for me. However, I figured out how to use VLOOKUP and ISBLANK. I only had to make sure the primary reference data I was looking for was hidden in column A while primarily residing in another column for me to view logically.
