If for every countif() I write excel paid me a dollar, I would be a millionaire by now. It is such a versatile and fun
formula to work with that I have decided to write about it as third post in our spreadcheats series.

Im on of those LifeHackers that have invaded your blog. I must say that I love the simple style you use
Ive already pointed a number of coworkers to your blog for hints and tricks to relieve myself of the
some of the work that comes with being the resident Office guru.
One thing that would be great for this series is a review of v/hlookup vs. the Index/Match combination. I
can always tell when someone ready to go to the next level when they discover vlookup but using that
command really pumps up the file size in older versions of excel (pre 07). Index(entire range, use Match
on the vertical list, use Match on the horizontal list) is so much more versatile you can change the
order of columns, rows, and pick out items that are left of the lookup. It also is very easy on the file size
(a plus when you have to email files under the draconian limits of the mail attachment size.
Look forward to your future posts youre my newest Google Reader feed!

I am soooo happy you were able to use some of this and sharing it with others.
I am going to write about offset / vlookup as part of the spreadcheats, may be this week. I hope some
of these questions can be answered.
