HLOOKUP
HLOOKUP checks the first row of the given data table for the specified value and returns a corresponding value in that column, based on the row given.
Syntax
lookup_value: The value to look for in a range/array. E.g. "B"
data_table: The table containing the data to test. E.g. A1:G2
row_index: The row that you want to get the corresponding value from (starting with 1 for the top-most row in the data table). E.g. 2
mode: Specifies how the data_table must be,
-1 - The first row must be sorted in descending order. The exact match or the next greatest value is considered.
0 - The first row can be unsorted. The exact match or regex match is considered.
1 and >2 - The first row must be sorted in ascending order. The exact match or the next smallest value is considered.
Remarks
-
Use named ranges for data_table . This helps refer a single source data table to create multiple tables for calculation and analysis.
-
If you don't remember the complete text you have to search for, use .* , .? and / instead.
.* - Can be used to replace any number of characters. E.g.
Zyl.*
finds
Zylker
.? - Can be used to replace a single character. E.g.
Karthi.?
finds
Karthik
and
Karthic
/ - Can be used to include *, ? and / in the search term. E.g. Zylker/* finds Zylker* and Karthi.?/? finds Karthik? and Karthic?
-
HLOOKUP is case-insensitive i.e. "APPLES" and "Apples" are treated similar.
