2. VLOOKUP Finds an entry from a vertical array based on a criteria =VLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,col_index_num,[range_lookup]) lookup_value: criteria to lookup or “match” table_array: the range or boundary of your table (excluding headings) col_index_num: the column number in your range that contains the corresponding data range_lookup: – True: Finds the exact match or the next lower value in your table array – False: Finds an exact match in your table array 2CSE 2111 Lecture Vlookup and Hlookup

3. HLOOKUP Finds an entry from a horizontal array based on a criteria =HLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,row_index_num,[range_lookup]) lookup_value: criteria to lookup or “match” table_array: the range or boundary of your table (excluding headings) row_index_num: the column number in your range that contains the corresponding data range_lookup: – True: Finds an exact match in your table array or Finds the lowest value without going over – False: Finds an exact match in your table array 3CSE 2111 Lecture Vlookup and Hlookup

4. TABLE/ARRAY RULES TRUE Leftmost column should contain the table range Rightmost column should contain the value Leftmost column must be in ascending order Finds an exact match in your table array or finds the lowest value without going over Beginning value in table array must be the lowest value of a lookup value. FALSE Leftmost column should contain the table range Rightmost column should contain the value Finds the exact match in your table array 4CSE 2111 Lecture Vlookup and Hlookup
