Review of hLookup and absolute reference

Using the Index function with nested Match function to look up information from a data set

Advanced Excel Class overview

  • The vlookup function is a built-in algorithm to cross-reference information from the desired data set.  The use of the vlookup function can:
    • Replace the need for manual looking up and copying and pasting. 
    • Compare two large data sets column by column.
  • Macros in Excel enable you to record what you do with your mouse and keyboard (into computer code) in Excel.  Then you can run those recorded steps to facilitate automation.  If you can identify Excel tasks you do repetitively, you can apply the macro record/play feature to save time.
  • Nested if functions enable you to leverage more complex function usage and enable flow chart/path/branching decision-making.
