Hello all –
My first post here, but I have used these forums to solve other issues.
I am not good with the advanced Excel stuff, and I've got something which appears to be a VLOOKUP question (which I have never used before).
The situation is such. I need to search for a specific value in six columns of a sheet and return the value of the cell adjacent to the right. So far I have a-googled many options, none of which work, although I did get ISERROR to work and tell me there's no match (which is wrong).
In fact, here is that one, which seems most promising:
Here's is what I think it is doing:
- The IF gets it rolling
- ISERROR is returning "No match" if the criteria are not met...
- ...which should be the MATCH section, searching for 2013 in the range J2:N433, 0 for exact
- ...and if the criteria are met, then the VLOOKUP is looking for 2013 in the array J2:N433
- ...putting in the +1 to return the value of the cell one column over
- ...and FALSE used for an exact match
So I think the +1 is a sticking point. I read a post on here or excelforum.com saying that when using a MATCH, +1 increments one column, but that just seems too loose for Excel.
To be honest, I have read a lot of posts over the past day, and they're all jumbled in my head. I figured I'd just head right to here and see who can un-jumble my ideas.
Here is a chunk of my data.
What I wish to do is create another column that finds the 2013s then displays the value to their right, such as 6, 11, 62, etc.
Thanks very much...
Micah
