Hi Leila, I am using Excel in Office 365 but XLOOKUP function is not available on my pc. Do you have any idea why it isn't available. I will also write to Microsoft Support
@@dicelloHi Koray, you have to be an
office insider user to use it.
Nader Azzam Thank you, I will have to wait for the public release than
Koray Aydın I thought this was a public release as of last month. Just make sure your software is fully updated.
Thomas St. Martin I checked if there are any updates but it says it’s up to date. Maybe they are distributing region by region. I am located in Turkey.
Who else is learning Xlookup at 3:00 AM 😂😂😂😂
Literally me 😂
Fr.
Me 😂😂😭
At 1.30am maybe
4.43 AM 😂🎉
I've been following and watching your videos for about two years. I'm a hardcore data analyst, I mean python, SQL, R guy. Had a job interview today and it was mostly excel based. Took a refresher with some of your videos and it saved me a lot. Thanks Leila.
and you learnt SQL & R from? how do we practice that? em actually starter in R
Dude i dont think leila is a real person. Ur crying ur heart out to a bot right now.
Why am I watching this at 9:30 at night and getting super excited at how much easier this will make my life!
I’m watching it at 3:45am and having the same reaction. ☺️😞
Same here 01:06 and I have small kid's too
I should really try to sleep!
11:15pm here
Leila, there is no comparison to how simple you make things for your audience to understand when it comes to anything in excel. Hats off!
Leila is a bot, man. We'll have her program u in a response on her next iteration
Always used to use index match match for these sorts of problems. Nice to see that Microsoft have included the concept as a single straight forward function rather than the clever trick that it was before.
Thanks for the XLOOKUP magic, Teammate Leila : )
Love both of your channels
She's married bro
Simply amazing and so well explained. I’m a self taught excel user, been using it for over 25 years. Always used Vlookup, for so many things, but turned to xlookup maybe a year ago and have been loving it since, but using only its most basic form. These tips will come in handy, thanks!!
Excellent video Leila! I just watched a couple of other videos on this topic done by other UA-camrs and I was left in a cloud of confusion! I am not an excel guru but I need to get better at it. What makes your videos stand out is that you use real-world examples. I like the fact that most of your videos are under 20 minutes. If I forget how to do something I just watch the video again. I already have a few ideas on how to use XLOOKUP. Keep doing what you are doing, Leila! Thanks so much!
Leila I've bought your courses, because you explain things more clearly than anyone and the editing must take more time, but makes things so clear. You are my favourite Excel teacher by far. Thanks for all the value you provide. Really helps with my job.
I agree. Her clear explainations/teaching save me heaps of work!
thank you so much for the well explanations you provided
Thank you, your videos are are always well structured, professional, high value and very useful. It takes knowledge, effort and passion to achieve this level of "perfection".
@Leila your videos are consistently the most helpful and easiest to follow. Every now and again, I click on someone else's video for help but I almost always come back and end up finding what I need from yours. Thank you for all of your posts, they are truly helpful! --Joe
I will be rewatching this a few times. Game-changing lessons in lookup function, thank you!
Really comprehensive overview of a function that I’d not even heard of. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Glad it was helpful!
Hello Leila, Thank you for all your amazing courses on Udemy. I'm upgrading my skill through your courses.
Thank you.
I know this video is a few years old now, but the explanation for the 2-way lookup saved me today. I'm putting together a table, that calculates freight prices, based on the amount of pallets/ load carriers and the consignee's postal code. Thank you!
THANK YOU! I love your presentation style - just right for my knowledge of excel! I just learned about XLookup and my goal this morning was to learn how to use it. You started my day with a win!
I'm taking your vba courses on udemy. I've taken so many data analytics related courses taught by industry experts and you are the best teacher. Your style is always so clear and concise. Thank you!
Your teaching is amazing...I have started your excel dashboard course on udemy....And I am so excited to learn it...😃👏👏👌👌
Wonderful!
Excellent. You explain this in an easy to understand way. I liked vlookup but I love xlookup. Can’t wait to put it to good use. Thumbs up from me!
For a chemical engineer who imports massive tabulated data into Excel and calculates properties based on MULTIPLE PARAMETERS, XLOOKUP is gold and time-saving! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. You've earned a subscriber :)
Hello Leila, Thank you for all your amazing courses. I have definitely become better using them.
Thank you.
Glad to hear that Nigel!
Thanks Leila. I have always used index-match combinations for dynamics lookups. When I purchase an office 365 subscription, I was excited about xlookup, but wasn't quite sure how to make it dynamic as we could do with index-match. The 4th example where you used nested xlookup addresses the issue.
Thank you so much! This is is the video that I didn't know I needed to see today! I had spent the better part of my day trying to create a nested formula that exceeded the 64 entries allowed. I was trying to figure out how to do what I needed using VLOOKUP when I stumbled across your video and followed your instructions and got my formula to work and return the data that I needed. Your instructions and explanation were so easy to follow. Again, thank you! You saved me a lot of time!
Leila is the hero we never knew we needed. Amazing courses!
Really nice! ZERO ums, ahs, pauses, or slips. Perfect! Thank you! I bought a pile of your Udemy courses too.
That's great. I hope you will enjoy the courses.
@@LeilaGharani It's VERY RARE that I hear anyone on UA-cam as good as you are. You never make a verbal mistake; never pause to figure out what to say; never say ah, um, or utter any filler words. Every phrase you speak moves the narrative forward. I think you're the best that I've ever seen (heard). I stand in awe. :-)
Looks like they’ve fixed vlookup’s fatal flaws, especially the fixed column number reference which made the function unusable and had everyone replace it with index(match). Well done.
👍
You can use a match for the column number so it is just as dynamic.
Getting all this knowledge from your videos... Thank you!
I am so JAZZED for xlookup! Thank you for this amazing tutorial! I cannot wait to start using this!!
I love how simplistic excel examples always are when in reality you are using these functions to look through 10 different workbooks lol
If you need to lookup accross 10 different workbooks, you're already way past the point of needing a database and using SQL for that.
Amazing, Indeed I benefited a lot from your lessons and raised my level of competence a lot, and therefore I got an increase in my salary
Leila, I subscribe and follow very few people however the amount of information and practical knowledge you provide is incredible. You are my immediate go to whenever I am looking to simplify my excel programs. Thank you.
Wow, thank you!
I have been using sumproduct for the 2 way lookup but xlookup seems easier and simpler. Thank you!
You know you're depressed af when you get excited over a new Excel formula.
Haha, then I guess I'm mega-depressed 😁
@@LeilaGharaniI am (still) excited too about this😂
This is game changer! No longer have to arrange data for lookup! Thank you.
Wow, thank you. Before I am using Vlookup then shift to Index-Match then first time to know XLookup. Excited to apply this in my spreadsheet seems to be more powerful. Thank you very much.
I can't wait until this is included on all versions of Excel
It’s now available for all 365 versions 😊
@@LeilaGharani not working in 2007 version.
@@sandugvr because microsoft ended office 2007 and you have to pay for microsoft 365
It is not available in 2016
It is not on Office Professional Plus 2019. Bummer!
When can we have this.....really want it. How long we need to wait...
Can't wait, so I just participated the insider program and updated my Excel...
Now, as of 10 Feb 2020.
I think it’s already out
Life changing! How did I not know this?? Have already shared with other colleagues and they had not heard of Xlookup either. Super excited about using this new formula and the video was excellent, thank you so much Leila!!
Happy to help!
Xlookup is that powerful! I love your simple explanation
You shouldn’t use Xlookup if you’re planning on sharing the spreadsheet with colleagues or clients. It’s functionality only works on updated versions of excel and won’t work on old versions of excel.
Paste as values.
Similar as to what Yman states - but first save a copy of your file under different file name so you can keep your formula version for yourself, then Copy -> Paste Values... a good habit to do in general because the chances of the person you are sending the file on to, knowing how to manage formulae let alone filtering and who knows what type of manipulations, better rule of thumb to keep a working file for yourself for later and provide a simple output to anyone downstream, unless the aim is to have them adjust values incorporated in the formula.
doesnt every business have o365 nowadays
@@nicok8203 no :(
We are still on MS Office 2016
Nah, upgrade or GTFO.
"James Willard got a maximum bonus of 0 - that looks good!" - but James is sad :P Just kidding! Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial!
Poor James :)
Came here for this comment
love the way you speak and teach. Wish you keep teaching always and i keep listening.....thanks for being so nice while teaching. have a great day.
Your Explanation is awesome as usual. I was not understanding two ways lookup but after watching your video I can use this at ease. Thanks a lot.
At Last - Been waiting for the 'IF not Found' parameter for years. All I've got to wait for now is for all of my client PC to get this version of excel....
Excellent tutorial, Leila, nice and clear as always. Already used the functions and it's made life a lot easier :)
Thanks for the simple approach Leila to the multiple variable XLOOKUP function!
Clearing concept in simplest way possible.... loved it
I do some professional development every Friday and have subscribed to your channel as an integral part of that. Your format is great. Concise, easy to follow, and very informative.
Awesome, thank you!
I like to listen to your tutor always because the way you explain is extraordinary, Thank you so much.
I was going to change a excel i use at fork, to be more automated and just found this vid, it will make it a lot easier for me. Funny thing is that actually I can use all of the examples in different areas of the excel! Can't wait to update the sheet now;).
Thanks
Awesome. I have been using vlookup for a long time... This will greatly help the NA problem.
Typeing if(NOT(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(...))),vlookup(...), default_value) has been my solution in the past... XLOOKUPs answer is so much better.
Hello Leila, Thank you for all your amazing courses
구글 알고리즘에 이끌려 새로운 재미난것을 배웠네요.
고마워요. 꼭 써먹어볼께요.
Thank you, I have been using LOOKUP with IF statements and have issues when I sort. My work has finally updated from EXCELL 2007 and I thought I should see what's new.. These are the best tutorials I have found. Thanks for teaching this old dog new tricks.
Thank you so much for your videos!
I was very lucky to found your channel! My native language is spanish, and I can understand almost every word you say.
Thank you!
That's great to hear, Carmen!
Thanks, two way xlookup was new to learn. It will be very helpful.
I never thought I would use this, but now I can't wait! Thank you!!!!!!!
OMG thank you! Needed the wildcard match and approximate match!
