    Another option for multiple criteria is to use Xlookup with concatenate criteria and lookup on concatenate columns. It works well but request more memory to calculate the results (particularly when calculating on a big dataset)

    This is great function! Thanks for showing it to us Leila! I will no longer need to count columns for Vlookup in my files with 200 columns! I use Index-Match often to avoid it, and Dget seems to be even more elegant solution for many situations.

    • @TheTuTuTurtle
      @TheTuTuTurtle 4 роки тому

      problem is you can only lookup 1 row with DGET, so you will still have to use index match

    • @AtanasNenov

    Thank you for the great function. just to make something right. I have tried using the function with a table instead of range selection and it is not working. the reason that I figured out is that typing the table name makes it selected without the headers. in order to use it as a full table, you need to refer it as =DGET(Table1[#All],1,J4:J5)

    Nice addition for the index and match combo funtion is that match() works for multiple matche per row too.
    You could youse the multiple matches like (A1="x")*(B1="x") etc.
    Excel could take up some long processing time with large tables though.
    Mine took around 30 to 40 minutes for a table with 7000 rows and 3 matches acros.

  • @furzkram
    @furzkram 2 роки тому +1

    The error at 8:17 makes perfect sense as one person would be assigned multiple departments or divisions, and which resulting values should the DGET function then return? The error lies in the representation of the relations in the data table. The good, old "crap in, crap out" principle.

  • @thierryvanbrabant8223
    @thierryvanbrabant8223 4 роки тому +2

    I think the #NUM error is useful because it tells me there is a duplicate in my dataset. I have run into some errors because vlookup and index/match will always give me an answer and with duplicate values it gives me an answer without me knowing there may be others. Thanks for the video!

    Vlookup is a simple instrument. So, you can use it with additional collumns where you can point your criteria which you can rule in separated cell.
    I've began to do this couple years ago when tasks began to grow and vlookup helped me very well.

    With the following features:
    1. A teacher possibly taking more than 1 subject.
    2. A class possibly having 2 subjects at the same periods.
    3. Each subject having its own no of periods per week.
    4. Possibility of science subjects in science laboratory, with consideration that two/three classes may be sharing the same laboratory.
    And other possible features.

    I know DGET for almost 15 years now and is an excellent function but I've never used it because of the problem of copying down. I watched your video hoping that you could find a solution. Excellent video as usual. Apart from DGET there are also other database functions, such as DSUM.

      @@fabianstra2155 doesn't work, since then it would see ALL the cells between the header and the current as part of the criteria...
      What might work is to just have every odd-number row for the headers (and hidden) and then even-number rows for the values. Then it would allow for copying down, we just need to hide every other row... :-|
