I want to use the VLOOKUP function in Excel to search for a value in a table and return a corresponding value from another column. What is the syntax for the VLOOKUP function in Excel and how do I use it to search for a value and return a corresponding value?
- In the Formula Bar, type =VLOOKUP().
- In the parentheses, enter your lookup value, followed by a comma. …
- Enter your table array or lookup table, the range of data you want to search, and a comma: (H2,B3:F25,
- Enter column index number.
- Enter the range lookup value, either TRUE or FALSE.
The VLOOKUP (Vertical Lookup) function finds for a value in the leftmost column of a table and then displays the value in the same row from another column you specify.
Syntax:
VLOOKUP(lookup_value, table_array, col_index_num, [range_lookup])
Type VLOOKUP() in the formula bar and enter your lookup value in the parentheses. Enter the table array or lookup table and then enter the column index number. Then enter the range lookup.
Tha syntax for VLOOKUP function in Excel is Enter =VLOOKUP()
