does access have a facility similar to Vlookup in excel?
RE: access
Hi Hazel
Thanks for your question
The closest function that I can find is DLookup, where D stands for domain.
It finds a value maching specified criteria in a specified field in a specified table. It can be used in a macro, query or calculated control on a form or report.
It has the following arguments.
expr - The field value you wish to return
Domain - The table containing the field
Criteria - An expression that limits the data to be returned
an example would look something like this
DLookup("[FirstName]", "Contacts", "[ContactID] = 3")
Hope this is useful
Regards
Stephen
