XLOOKUP, the modern lookup
Look up a value in any column and return any other column with XLOOKUP, including columns to the left, with your own result when nothing is found.
In this lesson
- The search and return columns can be anywhere, in any order.
- To return another column, change only the third argument.
- Both columns need the same number of rows. Lock them with $ before copying the formula down.
