How does vlookup work?
RE: Vlookup
Hi Georgia
Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.
Vlookup is a function within Excel to lookup dataup from a table of information. The table of information must have in its first column a list of unique values.
You need to enter 4 values
Lookup_Value - Value to search for in the table
Table_Array - Location of the table
Col_Index_Num - Which column number to return
Range_Lookup - Will an approximate match be okay
Example
=VLOOKUP(C2,Customers!A:D,3,False)
I hope that helps
