Microsoft Excel: Let’s Look Beyond the Lookup
OVERVIEW
Microsoft Excel VLOOKUP retrieves one result to a match request,
if that match can be found in the leftmost column of a large dataset. If the
data is not laid out properly, or if the data is held as the wrong type,
everything crumbles in the spreadsheet. Instead, you can expand your horizons
with text, logical, lookup, and math functions – as well as new ways of
referencing the data. This webinar will explorehow to use VLOOKUP in Excel and
many other powerful, dynamic functions available in Excel.
All too often, we get our data from clients that don’t
understand how to use Excel, or databases that weren’t set up with our goals in
mind. We can spend far too long trying to make the data just right, instead of
pulling out the right tool from the toolbox. Integrating IFERROR, ISERROR, and
IFNA with VLOOKUP immediately makes it more forgiving, and using MATCH with it
makes it more flexible. You can replace VLOOKUPfunction in Excel entirely,
sometimes with INDEX and MATCH, and other times with functions you wouldn’t
assume, like MAX, SUMIFS, and LARGE. We’ll discuss a number of real-world
scenarios where these tools shine.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND
Unlike many webinars, Neil’s sessions are 100% hands-on real-world
examples of the skills he’s presenting. After this session, you’ll have a
screenshot-laden step-by-step guide to performing the techniques we cover, as
well as downloadable code for supplemental User Defined Functions. You’ll be
able to apply these skills directly to your work with almost no adjustment, and
with a very short learning curve.
AREAS COVERED
Making VLOOKUP work well in every scenario, even when it can’t
handle the request:
- VLOOKUP arguments
- ISERROR, IFERROR, and IFNA integrations
- MATCH integration with VLOOKUP
Replacing VLOOKUP with more flexible functions:
- INDEX and MATCH replacement of VLOOKUP
- Multiple-criteria lookup with SUMIFS
- Ranked lookup with LARGE
Supplementing your lookups with alternative tools:
- Wildcard characters for flexible lookups
- CONCAT for multi-variable lookups
- Integrating color into your lookups
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Simple VLOOKUP is a powerful tool, but there are a thousand ways
to tweak it to be more powerful – or to bypass it for more flexible, useful
functions. Supplementing Microsoft Excel VLOOKUP with functions like IFERROR,
MATCH, and CONCAT, or using tools like SUMIFS, LARGE, INDEX, MATCH, and SEARCH
can build a suite of functionality you can apply to the kind of data you see in
the real world. If you can’t guarantee that your data will be properly
structured, VLOOKUP will give you errors and incorrect answers,more often than
not.
