If You Use Excel’s Vlookup(), You Need to Be Using the New’Ish Xlookup() Now
| |
Do you use the Excel function Xlookup() yet? If you use Microsoft Excel as much as I do, you probably look stuff up using the tried and true Vlookup() or it’s less popular sibling, Hlookup() function. XLookup() is so much better that I thought it might be worth a quick post to introduce it to users who may not be aware of it. I missed it for a good three years before I stumbled across it last year. | |
