RE: Excel Functions
Hi Nadia,
VLookup and HLookup take a value in a particular cell and compare that value with the leftmost column or top row of a specified range of data, or lookup table. It then return a value from a specified column, located in the appropriate row of the lookup table.
VLOOKUP has the following syntax =VLOOKUP(Value, TableArray,ColumnIndex,RangeLookup)
Value = The cell containing the value to be checked
TableArray = The range of cells containing the lookup table
ColumnIndex = the column number to be returned, (Numbered from 1 moving left to right)
RangeLookup = TRUE if you want the nearest match, FALSE if you want an exact match only
HLOOKUP has the same syntax except Column index is replaced by row index. This is the same with the top row in the table numbered as 1, the second 2 and so on.
Regards
Stephen
