Hi,

I have a list of workouts with exercises in each row and another sheet with list of all exercises with details about them (equipment, pictures, and …). I used relational to link exercises in workout sheet to exercises in a list of all exercises sheet but then when I do rollup or lookup for pictures and instructions of the exercises it just displays them blank.

Why is this happening?

Side question: when I do relational sometimes it duplicated the data. So if I relate row 1-5 in Sheet A to row 1-5 in Sheet B, all the values in that row in sheet B are duplicated. So rows in sheet be would go 1-5 and then 1-5 would be repeated again below it. 1-2-3-4-5-1-2-3-4-5. Why is this happening and how can I stop this?

I’ve been working on this for a few days now and it’s driving me nuts.
