How to Use VLOOKUP in Excel (With Real Examples)

Image
VLOOKUP searches for a value in the first column of a range and returns something from a column to its right. The formula looks like this: =VLOOKUP(D2, A2:B50, 2, FALSE) That reads as: take the value in D2, find it in column A, and give me the matching value from column B — exact matches only. That single formula covers most of what people need VLOOKUP for. The rest of this guide explains each part, walks through two real examples, and fixes the five errors that trip everyone up. What VLOOKUP actually does Think of a product list with codes in one column and prices in the next. You have a code and you want its price. VLOOKUP is the function that goes and fetches it, instead of you scrolling and copying by hand. The "V" stands for vertical, because it searches down a column. There is an HLOOKUP that searches across a row, but you will rarely need it — most spreadsheets are built with data running downward. One rule matters more than any other: the value you are ...

The Excel IF Formula: 7 Practical Examples

Image
The IF formula asks a question and returns one answer if it's true and another if it's false. The pattern never changes: =IF(B2>=50, "Pass", "Fail") Three parts, separated by commas: the test, the answer when it's true, the answer when it's false. Everything else people do with IF is a variation on those three slots. Below are seven examples taken from real spreadsheet work, roughly in order of how often you'll need them. The three parts Part In the example What it does Logical test B2>=50 A question Excel answers with TRUE or FALSE Value if true "Pass" What appears when the test is TRUE Value if false "Fail" What appears when the test is FALSE Text answers go in double quotes. Numbers don't. "50" in quotes is text and will not compare correctly against a number. 1. A simple threshold =IF(B2>=50, "Pass", "Fail") A score of exactly 50 ...

SUMIF and SUMIFS: Conditional Totals Made Simple

Image
SUMIF adds up numbers that meet one condition. SUMIFS does the same for several conditions at once — and takes its arguments in a different order. =SUMIF(A2:A100, "Riyadh", C2:C100) =SUMIFS(C2:C100, A2:A100, "Riyadh", B2:B100, "Hardware") Look at where C2:C100 — the column being added — sits in each. In SUMIF it's last. In SUMIFS it's first. That single inconsistency causes more broken formulas than everything else about these two functions combined. The argument order Function Order SUMIF where to look, what to look for, what to add SUMIFS what to add , where to look, what to look for, (repeat) A useful habit: use SUMIFS even when you only have one condition. It works perfectly with a single criteria pair, and you stop having to remember which order you're in. =SUMIFS(C2:C100, A2:A100, "Riyadh") Same total, different order — SUMIF ends with the sum range, SUMIFS begins ...
