HLook up formulas

could you please let me know how it works? Thanks

RE: HLook up formulas

Hi Kamila,


The H lookup or horizontal lookup searches for a value in the top row of a table, and then returns a value in the same column from a row you specify in the table. Use HLOOKUP when your comparison values are located in a row across the top of a table of data, and you want to look down a specified number of rows.

For example if you used

=HLOOKUP("Training",A1:D4,4) goes across the first row and looks up the word Training, and it returns the value from row 4 that's in the same column. So in effect it goes across and then down.

Hope that helps

Tracy

Excel tip:

Use the SUBTOTAL function in Excel

You can create subtotals in your spreadsheet using the SUBTOTAL function, which looks like this:

=SUBTOTAL(9,cell:cell)

9 represents the function being used (SUM), followed by the range of cells the function is operating on.

The neat thing about using the Subtotal function is that if you have used it several times in the same column or row, clicking on the AutoSum button at the end of the column or row will make Excel add only the results of cells containing the Subtotal function in that column or row.
