RE: V Look Up
Hi Laura,
Thanks for your question.
For VLOOKUP, the function looks like this:
=VLOOKUP(Search cell, data table range, compare column, match type)
For match type:
TRUE: for near match
FALSE: for exact match
e.g. searching references: names/price, you need exact match, so you'll input FALSE
e.g. searching for a brief estimate, you will put TRUE
Hope this helps. -Katie

Excel tip:Sorting List SubtotalsIf you find that you would prefer to show the items in a subtotalled list in a different order, eg ascending rather than descending, you can sort your list. To sort a subtotalled list, hide the detail rows and then sort the subtotal rows. When you sort a subtotalled list, the hidden detail rows are automatically moved with the subtotal rows. |
