HLOOKUP & VLOOKUP IN MS-EXCEL

HLOOKUP & VLOOKUP IN MS-EXCEL

HLOOKUP & VLOOKUP can be simply explained as Horizontally  and Vertically searching a data in a given range.

There are more ways to use VLOOKUP & HLOOKUP. But this is the most simplest one which I have tried to explain here.

This could  be easily understood by an example.

Suppose their is a table containing the following:



I had made this table in Sheet 2 of Excel. 

Now in same sheet of Excel I want to know the marks of child in cells by only typing his or her name. We can put VLOOKUP formula for doing so. 


In above we have to only change the value of A14 where RAM is written as soon as we will write another name properly. 

The formula applied in the cell B14 is =VLOOKUP(A14,A1:F11,2)

Here in formula A14 is the cell the value which we have to search for

A1:F11 is the range in which we have to search

2 is the column number which we want to see/display. 

The same formula will be applied in the remaining cells but the value written as 2 will be changed accordingly. To be more specific it will be 3, 4, 5 & 6

Note: THE NAME TO BE SEARCHED SHOULD BE IN ALPHABETICAL ORDER.

As VLOOKUP works searches data vertically in a table. HLOOKUP searches the data Horizontally in a table.

 

I have only transposed the same table which I have used for VLOOKUP. Data is all same. 



In above we have to only change the value of A10 where RAM is written as soon as we will write another name properly. 

The formula applied in the cell B10 is =HLOOKUP(A10,A1:K6,2)

Here in formula A10 is the cell the value which we have to search for

A1:K6 is the range in which we have to search

2 is the column number which we want to see/display. 

The same formula will be applied in the remaining cells but the value written as 2 will be changed accordingly. To be more specific it will be 3, 4, 5 & 6

Hope the information in this blog is useful.

  MAIL MERGE IN PAGEMAKER We all know about Mail Merge feature in MS-Word. Like Word PageMaker also provides us the facility to Mail Merge which is here known as Data Merge.  Data Merge can be found under Window Menu - Plug-in Palettes - Show Data Merge Palette .

And first row will always contain the headings. As I have

Paste Special in MS-Excel Paste Special in MS-Excel provides many options. When we copy any data and simply paste it to some other cell it is copied with all its settings such as formula, font size, comments, etc. which are in it.  But Paste Special provides us the facility to not to copy things which we don't want. Here I would try to describe all basic points.  First of all we will see how Paste Special looks like when we copy any data and open the Paste Special Window. It may differ from the type of data copied.  Here we can see under paste many things are written. I have already described all above.
