MATCH function is a lookup function that returns the relative position of an item in a list lookup_value is the value you tell the match function to lookup lookup_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 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 big returns #N/A, if smaller than last it returns last value Match w 0 (Exact Match) MATCH can do vertical or horizontal Jo

INDEX is a lookup function that can do a two-way lookup. reference argument is the two dimensional table (or a 1-way lookup) - references must b be on the same sheet as the formula. Tables must be placed in numerical order, sepa 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 nu If tables are on different sheets, use the CHOOSE function in the array argum CHOOSE function: CHOOSE can return a value or a range from a list of 1 to 254 argumen 1) =CHOOSE(index_num, value1,value2, ) 2) When the "lookup_value" / index_number is whole number between 1 an CHOOSE can be a good lookup tool 3) If index_num is 1, then value1 is used ... If index_num is 2, then value2 is used 4) value can be a number, or a formula/function, "text" (in quotes), a range references, or defined names 5)

INDEX is a lookup function that can do a two-way lookup. reference argument is the two dimensional table (or a 1-way lookup) - references must be c be on the same sheet as the formula. Tables must be placed in numerical order, separat 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 numb If tables are on different sheets, use the CHOOSE function in the array argumen CHOOSE function: CHOOSE can return a value or a range from a list of 1 to 254 argumen 1) =CHOOSE(index_num, value1,value2, ) 2) When the "lookup_value" / index_number is whole number between 1 254, CHOOSE can be a good lookup tool 3) If index_num is 1, then value1 is used ... If index_num is 2, then value2 is used 4) value can be a number, or a formula/function, "text" (in quotes), a rang references, or defined names 5)
