Also, please do not use entire columns. Restrict to only area needed.

First of all, no need to yell: (VLOOKUP IS NOT WORKING)
 
Second:
Vlookup has 4 parts:
lookup_value, 
table_array,
col_index_num,
range_lookup

Vlookup will look in the FIRST column of the "table_array" for a value that 
matches the "lookup_value"

since your lookup value is found in column E of sheet 1, your table_array 
should be Sheet1!E:G not Sheet1!B:G

so, the formula in cell G3 should be: =VLOOKUP(E3,Sheet1!E:G,3,FALSE)

hope this helps

Paul
