Microsoft Excel LOOKUP Course: VLOOKUP, XLOOKUP, and more!

Explore the VLOOKUP syntax and structure, including the lookup value, table array, column index, and range lookups, while learning exact and approximate matches and basic error handling.

Master vlookup basics, exact and approximate matches, and error trapping with iferror; combine two vlookups to pull income and tax brackets for each ID.

Write a function in cell e4 to pull the grade by looking up the student id from column a and return the grade from column b using vlookup.

Master how to use Vlookup to fetch a student's semester grade by matching a student ID in a two-column table array, selecting the column index and the exact-match option.

Apply vlookup with approximate match to assign tax brackets to incomes in column a, using a lookup table and autofill the results in column b.

use vlookup with approximate match to determine tax rates by salary in a made-up bracket table. see how the lookup identifies the range between 50,000 and 60,000 and returns 8%.

Use vlookup to find the wholesale cost by product number in d3, wrap with iferror to capture errors and return 'value not found,' then test with the correct product.

Demonstrate handling missing product ids in vlookup by wrapping the formula with iferror to return not found, and note that xlookup provides built-in error handling.

Use vlookup to find order locations from order numbers, then nest another vlookup to retrieve the region manager; add column C to pull managers for all locations.

Apply nested vlookups to join two tables and retrieve the manager for each order location, expanding your data lookup skills.

Explore index and match as powerful, separate functions that together enable flexible lookups, including two-dimensional searches, by separating row and column retrieval for faster results than vlookup.

Apply index and match to perform exact lookups, handle missing data with iferror, and execute a two-way lookup to retrieve employee income and tax brackets.

Use index and match to retrieve a student’s grade from column B based on their ID, building on the Vlookup example in the Microsoft Excel lookup course.

Showcases how index and match combine to retrieve a semester grade by student ID, using a zero match type and row-based index, with a comparison to Vlookup.

Use index-match to pull tax brackets for incomes with approximate match, ensuring column e is sorted and selecting the correct match argument before autofilling from B2.

Learn how to perform an approximate index-match in excel by using the match type less than to map income values to tax brackets, returning the correct tax rate.

Explore a two-way index match lookup: locate the employee ID row and the department column, then return the department for a given employee.

Use index-match-match to lookup a value by row and column with exact matches, then wrap the result with if error for clean not found handling of IDs like E7036.

Pull the product name based on a product code match between column B and column G, and fetch the name from column H into column D.

Use index-match to join two data sets by matching product codes from column G and pulling toy names from column H, then autofill the results to complete the table.

Apply index-match to fill the department for each employee code from a lookup table, then trap errors with iferror to ensure robust results in Excel.

Learn to use index and match with iferror to trap missing department codes in an employee lookup, returning not found when a code isn't in the mapping table.

Apply index-match to pull bonuses by department, compute total compensation by adding salary and bonus, then practice an approximate match with salary ranges to determine tiered bonus percentages.

Explore how to use index match to pull department bonuses, add them to salaries to compute total compensation, and use an approximate match on salary to determine bonus eligibility.

Master the xlookup syntax and structure, compare it to vlookup and index match, and leverage exact, wildcard, optional not found, and search modes for powerful lookups.

Master xlookup basics by returning grades from a student id, joining tables to fetch birth city, and applying approximate match to determine income tax rates.

Perform an xlookup to find each student's grade by pulling the value from column c using the student id in column a, and pause to practice if needed.

Pull student grades by id using xlookup; compare its flexibility to index match and specify the lookup value, lookup array, and return array for simple lookups.

Learn to join two tables with Xlookup to auto fill the manager for every row based on region, with James as the central region manager.

Learn to join two tables using XLOOKUP to pull managers by region, returning no manager when missing and applying XLOOKUP across arrays for each row.

Demonstrate xlookup with the built-in error function to return a defined error value for a missing product ID, and retrieve the corresponding product name from the first table.

Practice using XLOOKUP to handle errors in a product lookup; specify the lookup and return arrays, and use the not found option to display no product name when missing.

Learn how to use XLOOKUP with approximate matches to determine the incremental tax rate for incomes, assigning 0% for 0–25, 7% for 25–50, and so on.

Use XLOOKUP to calculate incremental tax rates by mapping incomes to tax brackets, using match mode to choose next larger or smaller items, and autofill rates across data.

Demonstrate a bonus feature of Xlookup that uses the date to find the order value, even when the date lies to the right of the value, unlike Vlookup.

Learn how to use Xlookup to perform right-to-left lookups by placing the return array to the left of the lookup, handle not found with no date, and compare to Vlookup.
