MATCH Functions BasicsINDEX Basics: Two way lookupOne way lookup vertical (lookup Left)One way lookup horizontalOne way lookup with lookup column and match column orientated differentlyINDEX & MATCH to do approximate lookup on table sorted DescendingLookup whole rowLookup whole columnLookup Cell ReferenceDynamic RangeLookup from more than one table when tables are on same sheet as formula

Lookup from more than one table when tables are on a different sheet than the formula: CHOOSE, INDEX, MATCH functions

lookup_value is the value you tell the match function to lookuplookup_array is the list that you look an item up in
[match_type] tells the MATCH what sort of lookup to do:
1 or empty = aproximate match; table sorted ascending; first bigger value bumped into then jump back one position, if value is smaller than first item returns #N/A, if bigger than last it returns last value
2 = extact match, if duplicates, it finds first one only, can't find it it shows #N/A
-1 = aproximate match; table sorted descending; first smaller value bumped into then jump back one position, if value is bigger than first item returns #N/A, if smaller than last it returns last value

INDEX is a lookup function that can do a two-way lookup.
Product 1 1Product 2 2Product 3 3
If tables are on different sheets, use the CHOOSE function in the array argument of INDEX.CHOOSE function:1) CHOOSE can return a value or a range from a list of 1 to 254 arguments.2) =CHOOSE(index_num, value1,value2, …)
3)
4)
5)
reference argument is the two dimensional table (or a 1-way lookup) - references must be cell references and must be on the same sheet as the formula. Tables must be placed in numerical order, separated by commas and
contained in parenthesis. Like: (ref1,ref2,ref3...)row_num argument tells index which row to look at
column_num argument tells index which colum to look at[area_num] argument tells the function which table to look at and must be a number 1, 2, 3, etc.
When the "lookup_value" / index_number is whole number between 1 and 254, CHOOSE can be a good lookup tool
If index_num is 1, then value1 is used ...If index_num is 2, then value2 is used
value can be a number, or a formula/function, "text" (in quotes), a range, cell references, or defined names

INDEX is a lookup function that can do a two-way lookup.
If tables are on different sheets, use the CHOOSE function in the array argument of INDEX.
CHOOSE can return a value or a range from a list of 1 to 254 arguments. =CHOOSE(index_num, value1,value2, …)
is the two dimensional table (or a 1-way lookup) - references must be cell references and must be on the same sheet as the formula. Tables must be placed in numerical order, separated by commas and
contained in parenthesis. Like: (ref1,ref2,ref3...) argument tells index which row to look at argument tells index which colum to look at
argument tells the function which table to look at and must be a number 1, 2, 3, etc.
