    Help to find universal extended VLOOKUP tool

    Pls advice the best tool (macro) for customizable VLOOKUP.

    It is often necessary VLOOKUP very large data, formulas work for a long time.
    And sometimes there are two options: find and pull up on the first match, or to find and pull all matches.

    I have been actively studying the VBA for personal use, so it would be good if there is access to the code.
    I would be grateful for the help, because very hard every day to compare 250k+ rows and 30+ columns by formulas. Especially if there is a filter in the range.

    vlookup will only ever return the 1st "find" - after that, it stops looking

    I think you could take a look at using INDEX/MATCH, it works like VLOOKUP (also only returns the 1st match)
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Yes, right. Need IDEX/MATCH in VBA. Just very tired every day to compare large data ranges by formula and became interested in the presence of a universal solution.

    In case commercial add-ins, - they usually have a hidden code. I learn VBA for personal use and would like to understand what the code does and be able to understand it.

    Anyway will be grateful if anybody advise best index/match tool (preferably one that can have two variants - returns a first value found, or all of the values found). And that can pull up the desired range (1 column or any desired range/columns).

    And may be, optional possibility to copy the new (missing) rows from the source file to main. Copy does not match the rows from source at the end of the main table.

    Even if it is will be commercial, unfortunately.
