I need to understand the formula of Hlookup
Excelchat Expert 15/12/2017 - 01:51
yes sir
Excelchat Expert 15/12/2017 - 01:53
The Microsoft Excel HLOOKUP function performs a horizontal lookup by searching for a value in the top row of the table and returning the value in the same column based on the index_number
Excelchat Expert 15/12/2017 - 01:53
The syntax for the HLOOKUP function in Microsoft Excel is: HLOOKUP( value, table, index_number, [approximate_match] )
User 15/12/2017 - 01:53
yes
User 15/12/2017 - 01:53
