Abstract
In the previous article, we have looked at VLOOKUP and how to use it to find and display the data we want. The main problem with VLOOKUP is that the lookup_value must always be in the left-most column of the lookup table. This, however, is not always possible (compare Figure 1 & 2).
Problem with VLOOKUP
In Figure 1, the name column is the left-most column. When we enter the formula =VLOOKUP($H$5, $A$2:$E$11, 5, FALSE) in cell H6, we get 19 i.e., the correct result.
