    if the source is already table, and the summary is filled with formula linked to that table copied all the way down, it would still get updated with new entry without Expand formula isnt it?

    Take is from the Top-Left ... Drop is from the Bottom-Right. You can, infact, find the bottom 3 in the table by "=TAKE(B3:E15,-3,-2)" where you're instructing TAKE to show you the last three (because the '-3' in rows), and the last two columns as you showed how to do using the '-2' in columns.

    I found these video so entertaining and educational. Thank you so much, you have made my life so much easier.
    I have a couple of questions if I may. When I type a number and I want to drag that number all the way down to repet in the tabs below, the number changes in the succession.For example: if I want to type the same number ie. 5 in the 4 tabs below, it shows as 6;7;8 etc. How do I make it stay at 5? I am not sure if I haven't been clear.

    Hey Kenji, I think the DROP() function is quite intuitive. You asked it to "drop" the first 10 rows and first 2 columns and it did just that and returned the rest of the array. In my opinion, Excel functions are the easiest to understand.
    Great content as always. Thank you!

    • @ralph_
      @ralph_ Рік тому +3

      I would have picked Take() with a minus value. That way it truly takes the last rows, rather than dropping prior rows. That way it's also more dynamic/independent on number of rows.

    I recently had the opportunity to join the procurement team of my School, the procurement team has traditionally struggled with the arrangement and compilation of evaluation sheets from different panels within Excel. The current practice of cutting and pasting data is cumbersome, prone to errors, and time-consuming. I believe that there must be a more efficient method to populate the outcomes of the panel evaluations into the Excel worksheet.
    I kindly request your advice on specific Excel functions or techniques that could be employed to make this process faster and more streamlined.

    @joukenienhuis6888 Рік тому +2

    Great explanation! I knew a lot of them, but that is because i try to keep my knowledge up to date. I only have a problem with why you should use the drop function. It is good to get the last data, but then you have to know the length of your table (no of rows), so if you don’t know that, it takes an extra function to count the rows. I do like the expand function, which is really handy if you keep updating a table

    • @paladin21aa
      @paladin21aa Рік тому +2

      Actually the DROP function is used to get rid of the number of rows and columns listed as parameteres. The 2 he used as a parameter meant that the first 2 columns had to be discarded, but since his original table had exactly four rows, it seemed that he was taking the last two rows.
      To get the bottom 3 records, you should enter -3 as the row parameter in the TAKE function just as he did with the columns.

  • @abbottkatz8830
    @abbottkatz8830 Рік тому +11

    You can expand the range without EXPAND, by entering =C5:D16 in G5. If you don't like the zeroes that appear in the currently unpopulated cells, write instead =IF(C5:D16=0,"N/A",C5:D16)

    • @aquagrunty101

    Hi Kenji, I have a quick question. Obviously you are aware that when using excell you can press tab to fill in the cell you are currently with information from an above cell if what you are typing is the same. My question is, is there a way to make a list of everything that I am expecting to type so It can be filled in whatever excel sheet I open? For example I do accounting for my small business and since i have many re ocurring clients I would like to steamline my invoice process so instead of having to clear an excel sheet every time i want to make a new invoice, I just begin typing in the letters of a clients name and then press tab to auto fill in the rest of the info from the list I spoke about earlier. Please tell me if this is possible! Thank you!

    • @Nick-eo8uv
      @Nick-eo8uv Рік тому +1

      hey buddy, in my opinion, you could create a small data base of the client details you require and then make a unique and simple "client code" for for each row (e.g. Google = GG, Faceback =FB) and so on
      so now when you need to add the details to your new sheet, you can make a new code and type just the client code and have a lookup function on the next cell to extract the full client name from your database sheet
      if you're using a table format then the formula on the next cell will automatically get dragged down once you type in the client code
      hope this helps

    No sure if I am doing something wrong here or not, but trying to use vstack in this scenario. I have a workbook with customers and the services they use. I have a tab for Service A and Service B. Some customers have only Service A, some only have Service B, and some have both A and B. In both tabs I have a unique customer identifier. If I do a vstack(ServiceACustID, ServiceBCustID) in a new tab I get a #Num error. Am I doing something wrong or do the arrays have to be on the same tab?

    Certainly! Explaining VLOOKUP, XLOOKUP, and INDEX in a video sounds like a great idea. I can provide a brief overview here to give you an idea:
    1. **VLOOKUP (Vertical Lookup)**:
    - VLOOKUP searches for a value in the first column of a table and returns a corresponding value in the same row from a specified column.
    - Syntax: `VLOOKUP(lookup_value, table_array, col_index_num, [range_lookup])`
    2. **XLOOKUP**:
    - XLOOKUP is a newer and more powerful function that can perform both vertical and horizontal lookups.
    - Syntax: `XLOOKUP(lookup_value, lookup_array, return_array, [if_not_found], [match_mode], [search_mode])`
    3. **INDEX**:
    - INDEX returns a value from a specific row and column of a given range.
    - Syntax: `INDEX(array, row_num, [column_num])`
    In the video, I'll elaborate on how to use these functions, their syntax, common use cases, and provide examples to demonstrate their functionalities. Stay tuned for the detailed explanations! 😊

    • @jalaristv7512
      @jalaristv7512 Рік тому +6

      @@joukenienhuis6888 Hi Jouken, you can use the =DROP function to remove redundant header rows, misc rows of data or unneeded columns from an array.
      Example:
      =DROP(range,1,0) would remove the headers of the range.
      =DROP(range,0,-1) would keep all the rows but remove the last column.
      It's also worth noting that you can wrap array formulas nicely as the result of your initial formula becomes a new "Range".
      So I could wrap =DROP functions to remove multiple columns
      Example:
      =DROP(range,0,-2) My initial formula to drop the 2nd to last column of data
      =DROP(DROP(range,0,-2),0,-4) Wrapping the above result and removing the 4th to last column of data from the result.
      If my range had 10 columns headed 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10. I would be removing 8 which would then give me 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,9,10 and then I would be removing 6 to give me 1,2,3,4,5,7,9,10.
      This concept applies to all formulas but can be especially powerful when working with array formulas like =TAKE and =DROP.
      You can also manipulate the rows and columns values using a function like XMATCH or an IF statement to give more control on what you're dropping.
      Note there are more advanced applications of DROP, so it's good to play around with any existing spreadsheets you have and see what you can do with it!

      Jalaris
