Wasn't this covered early in your "Introduction to Spreadsheets"
course? Or in the first chapter of your "Spreadsheets for Beginners" book?
To get
=VLOOKUP(A1;Sheet2.$A$1:$B$10;2;0)
in B1:
o Click in B1.
o Type "=VLOOKUP(".
o Click on A1.
o Type ";".
o Click on the sheet tab to reveal the other sheet (whatever it may
be called and wherever it is).
o Drag over A1 to B10 on that sheet.
o Type ";2;0)".
o Press Enter or click the green tick in the Input Line.
You may want to click the sheet tab to return to your first sheet at
some point in that process, but it is not necessary.
On the [Windows] machine, tab doesn't complete the typing so it is a
bit of a pain.
That because Windows users don't type: they gave that up with DOS,
some time in the last millennium. You ought to try it.
I trust this helps.
