Excel Function XLOOKUP

XLOOKUP(lookup_value, lookup_array, return_array [,if_not_found] [,match_mode] [,search_mode])

Returns the value in the same row after finding a matching value in any column.

lookup_value	The value to find in the lookup_array.
lookup_array	The array of values that contain the value you want to look for.
return_array	The range of cells that contains the value (or values) you want to return.
if_not_found	(Optional) The value to return when no match is found.
match_mode	(Optional) The match mode to use: 0 = Exact match is returned (lookup_array does not have to be sorted) (default) -1 = Exact match or the next smallest item 1 = Exact match or the next largest item 2 = Wildcard character match (? and *)
search_mode	(Optional) The search mode to use: 1 = First to Last (default) -1 = Last to First 2 = First to Last (case sensitive) lookup_array must be sorted in ascending order -2 = Last to First (case sensitive) lookup_array must be sorted into descending order

Remarks

* Added in Excel 2021.
* For an illustrated example refer to the page under Lookup Functions
* This function replaces the VLOOKUP, HLOOKUP and LOOKUP functions.
* This function is not case sensitive by default but this can be changed using the "search_mode" argument.
* This function supports wildcards (? and *).
* Wildcard character: ? = a single character.
* Wildcard character: * = multiple characters.
* If "lookup_value" cannot be found and "match_mode" = 0, then #N/A is returned.
* If "lookup_value" cannot be found and "match_mode" = 1 it uses the largest value that is less than the "lookup_value".
* If "lookup_value" cannot be found and "match_mode" = -1 it uses the smallest value that is greater than the "lookup_value".
* If "lookup_array" is a two-dimensional range and not a single column(or row) reference, then
* If "lookup_array" contains a different number of items to "return_array", then #VALUE! is returned.
* If "if_not_found" is left blank, the function cannot return no matches.
* If "if_not_found" is left blank and the function returns no matches, then #N/A is returned.
* If "match_mode" is left blank, then 0 is used.
* If "search_mode" is left blank, then 1 is used.
* This function was released in March 2020.
* You can use the INDEX function to return the intersection of a row and a column.
* You can use the XMATCH function to return the position of a value in a list, table or cell range.

	A
1	=XLOOKUP(1,{1,2,3},{4,5,6}) = 4
2	=XLOOKUP(2,{1,2,3},{4,5,6}) = 5
3	=XLOOKUP(4,{1,2,3},{4,5,6}) = #N/A
4	=XLOOKUP(4,{1,2,3},{4,5,6},"four") = four

1 - Return the value from the array {4,5,6} which corresponds to the position of the value "1" in the array {1,2,3}.
2 - Return the value from the array {4,5,6} which corresponds to the position of the value "2" in the array {1,2,3}.
3 - The value "4" does not exist in the array {1,2,3}, #N/A is returned.
4 - The value "4" does not exist in the array {1,2,3}, because there is a "if_not_found" arguments passed in, this is returned instead of #N/A.
