I think the issue is not the lookup, but the excel data source which probably have to read differently in the lookup.
I am not getting any error message. I am getting warning message and also the column where Excel data needs to shown is showing #Error.
The warning message is
Warning 1 [rsRuntimeErrorInExpression] The Value expression for the textrun ‘Textbox6.Paragraphs[0].TextRuns[0]’ contains an error:
Exception of type 'Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessingException_ComparisonError' was thrown.
