Working with Lookup Tables
Succeeding in Business with Microsoft Excel 2010 6Level 1 home
Retrieving Data from a Vertical Lookup Table
• VLOOKUP function– Most effective and flexible way to retrieve data
organized in columns– Searches specified part of worksheet for data,
starting with the first column– =VLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,
col_index_num,range_lookup)– Must specify col_index_num

Examining the VLOOKUP Algorithm
• Steps that Excel performs when VLOOKUP type is TRUE and key data is sorted in ascending order:1. Look for an exact match2. Check first value in lookup table3. Check next value in lookup table4. Check last value in lookup table
• If using lookup type of FALSE, VLOOKUP function looks only for an exact match of the lookup value
• Values in lookup table need not need be sorted in ascending order• VLOOKUP function displays #N/A in cell if exact match is not found

VLOOKUP Function with a FALSE Lookup Type

Retrieving Data from a Horizontal Lookup Table
• HLOOKUP function– Looks up a value by testing for a criterion across a
row– HLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,
row_index_num,range_lookup)– Must specify row_index_num

HLOOKUP Function Arguments
Succeeding in Business with Microsoft Excel 2010 16Level 1 home
HLOOKUP Type TRUE Algorithm
• Works in same way as for VLOOKUP function, except that values are tested across the row (instead of down the first column)
• First row of lookup table must be sorted in ascending order

Looking Up Data in a One-Row or One-Column Range
• Use LOOKUP function– Looks up the greatest value that does not exceed a
specified value anywhere in a table or range– Can retrieve data from a lookup table with a
vertical or horizontal orientation– Uses only a TRUE lookup type; column or row
containing lookup values must be in ascending order
– LOOKUP(lookup_value,lookup_vector,result vector)

Retrieving Data from Multidimensional Tables
• Use INDEX function with two- or three-dimensional tables– Returns the value in a table based on row and
column numbers that you specify– =INDEX(reference,row_num,column_num,
area_num)– Has several guidelines

Using the ISBLANK Function
• ISBLANK functions– Nine functions that test a value or cell reference,
then return a TRUE or FALSE value depending on results
– Often used in formulas to test the outcome of a calculation
– When combined with IF function, help locate data-entry errors
– =ISBLANK(value)

Using the CHOOSE Function to Determine the table _array
• A Reference and Lookup function that can return a value or a range for up to 254 different values
• =CHOOSE(index_num,value1,value2,…)
