VLOOKUP function in Excel

 


The VLOOKUP function is one of the most popular functions in Excel. This page contains many easy to follow VLOOKUP examples.

Exact Match

Most of the time you are looking for an exact match when you use the VLOOKUP function in Excel. Let's take a look at the arguments of the VLOOKUP function.

1. The VLOOKUP function below looks up the value Anaya (first argument) in the leftmost column of the red table (second argument).



2. The value 2 (third argument) tells the VLOOKUP function to return the value in the same row from the second column of the red table.



Note: the Boolean FALSE (fourth argument) tells the VLOOKUP function to return an exact match. If the VLOOKUP function cannot find the value Anaya in the first column, it will return a #N/A error.

3. Here's another example. Instead of returning the roll no, the VLOOKUP function below returns the last name (third argument is set to 3) of Anaya = 4004.
