Mynda, you have a knack to explain with right examples and this video is no exception! Thank you for helping us learn so much about Excel and related tools, especially the new features! Great work!
Thanks for your kind words, Vijay! 🙏
Powerful tutorial Mynda. As always, a brilliant explanation. Thank you very much!
Thanks so much, Ivan 🙏
Thanks for sharing; incredible how little I know of excel functions, and each time I watch one of your videos I get the feeling is a never ending endeavor.
The never ending learning is part of Excel's appeal 😊
Thank you so much Excel sensei. You have really widened our view and capabilities of using Excel. Much appreciated and thank you very much. 😊.
You're very welcome!
Thank you, Mynda for this outstanding presentation. That's impressive the way you introduce effortless those functions!!
Thanks so much! 😊🙏
Hi Mynda, I just love to watch your videos on Excel bcoz you keep things simple and explain wonderfully.
Thanks so much!
I always enjoy your videos. Direct to the point and very good explained.
Glad you like them, Jose!
Hi Mynda!Great Tutorial/Demonstration Of These Cool New Functions...Thank You :)
My pleasure, Darryl 🙏
Outstanding! You have just saved me SO MUCH time. Thank you!
Wow, that's awesome to hear!
Combining xlookup with a filtered vstack is quite exciting, thank you for a great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great tutorial! Very powerful time-saving functions!
Glad you like them 😊
This channel is a straight up goldmine.
Thanks so much, Steve! Please spread the word 😉
As always your videos are very useful. Thanks a lot for sharing this.
So nice of you 🙏
Very much helpful Maam
This was a great help!
Great to hear 😊
Amazing loved these functions
Great to hear 😊
As usual, another awesome video!
Glad you liked it 😊
Valueable info as alawys , thank you.
My pleasure!
I liked how you went straight to point, no additional/unnecessary talking, and no music. Very clearly articulating how the functions work, with their different scenarios. Thank you !!!
Glad you liked the video 🙏
Very nice!! Definitely will use this since I have monthly data that I pull for sales.
Great to hear!
Thanks for the share.
Our pleasure!
Amazing Video.. Can't compare your grip on excel functions... your explanation is very smooth... very impressive
Thanks for your kind words!
Amazing!!!
Thanks so much!!
You made me love Excel more!
Awesome to hear! 🥰
Your tutorials are easy to grasp and clearly articulated! Keep it up and keep Excelling !
For the headers, when working with Tables, I find it easier by just adding the header row once --> 𝐕𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐂𝐊(𝐓𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞𝟏[#𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬],Table1,Table2,Table3).
Thanks for your kind words!
I have these new formulas now. Previously, I had Microsoft 365 and Business (2x Microsoft accounts). I had Windows 10 Pro and Windows 11 Pro Preview on another PC. I was a Microsoft Office insider on both PCs and tried everything to get these new formulas somewhere. Well, now I have Windows and 11 Pro on a new PC and after joining Office insider- they worked after the update.
Enjoy them, Bradley!
great examples! I am starting to think the uses I can benefit my files with.
Great to hear!
Thank You...
My pleasure 😊
Awesome!
Glad you think so! 🙏
Borrowed by @VijayArjunwadkar but TRUE - Mynda, you have a knack to explain with right examples and this video is no exception! Thank you for helping us learn so much about Excel and related tools, especially the new features! Great work!
Thanks so much!
one More Awesome Video 🙏
Thank you!
Thanks for the video as always. Really like your straightforward style.
It's nice to have the flexibility these new functions provide but I have to admit I'm struggling to think of situations where I'd use them over Power Query. Maybe for some really quick and dirty stuff!
Yeah, I think I’d use PQ first too, but PQ requires a refresh to show changes, so they’re good if you want to avoid that step.
@@MyOnlineTrainingHub Good point! Cheers.
Just awesome, thankyou
Glad you liked it!
@@MyOnlineTrainingHub hey, i am using right now 365 but this option not available so i would like to go 365 beta version but i could to go any video you have. thanks
@@prosenjitchandrapaul These functions are being rolled out. Check if you have updates to install. If they don't appear, give it a few days and check again.
Nice video 📹 👍
Thanks so much!
These are so cool, thanks Mynda!
Cheers, Chris 🙏
Please send some blessings along with your videos for "Office for Mac" users.
These functions work on Mac too.
Very nice
Cheers, Drew!
Neat 👌
Glad you think so!
A very useful video
you are verl successful girl
Thanks 👏👏👏
Thanks so much 🙏
wowwwww you are so smart
Thank you!
At around the 5:45 mark you want to include the headers, if the headers are the same as the tables you are stacking use HSTACK to get the header row then stack it on top of the tables
like this (if using tables, its easier) =VSTACK(HSTACK(Table1[#Headers]),VSTACK(Table1,Table2,Table3))
Thanks for sharing, Erik. You could just write it like this without HSTACK and the extra VSTACK: =VSTACK(Table1[#Headers]Table1,Table2,Table3)
Great explanation 👌 about new functions.
When, these new functions will rollout with Office 2021.
Thank you! They won't be available in Office 2021. You need a Microsoft 365 license to get new features.
FINALLY!!!!! Finally, Microsoft find a formula to that...amazing!
Glad you like it!
Mynda - I thought it would be the very next example, but was wondering if "Socks" appeared in more than one sheet, would V/X lookup return an array? Guess I'll explore! Thanks for all you do on this channel!!
Yes, it’ll spill multiple results with XLOOKUP 👍
Bonza!
Cheers, Kevin!
Cool. I just wonder we can do UNIQUE rows in Power Query as well
Yes - select the entire table (Ctrl + A) then use Remove Rows >> Remove Duplicates under the Home tab.
Hi I watch regularly your videos. I have question trough which tool help me to extract high and low value from multiple excel sheets. Look forward to hear from you soon. Thanks &Regards
You can use VSTACK with MAX and MIN to get the high and low values.
Excellent explanation Mynda, thank you very much! I wonder if one can combine the FILTER function with VSTACK to calculate the sum of the category "Clothing", resulting in a more elegant function than using SUMPRODUCT:
=SUM(FILTER(VSTACK('2020:2022'!D2:D6),VSTACK('2020:2022'!B2:B6)="Clothing"))
Yes, SUM(FILTER works too 👍 Lots of ways to skin the Excel cat! 😊
The functions haven't filtered to my version of 365 yet, but I hope they arrive faster than they did for the xlookup one 😭
Fingers crossed, William 🤞
I'm too busy reading these comnts and not paying attention again.....and I'm Nice tutorialgh
Thank you!
I really love all this new functions, im really sad that in our company we are still in the pre-λ-era. 😥😢😭
Hopefully not for too much longer, Roger.
I have just combined another layer with "=SORT(VSTACK({"Year","Category","Product","Sales"},FILTER(VSTACK('2020:2022'!A2:D6),VSTACK('2020:2022'!A2:A6)"")),4,-1)"
Great to see you're making use of VSTACK!
Fantastic walkthrough. Can I possibly ask you how I can also solve the following?
I have the following formula: =IF(IFERROR(VLOOKUP([@Name],sheet1!A:A,1,FALSE),"No")="No","No","Yes")
I need the formula modified to execute the same for 3 sheets within my excel file (sheet1, sheet2, sheet3)
I'm not sure if you want a separate formula in each sheet, or one formula referencing all sheets. Please post your question and sample Excel file on our forum where we can help you further: www.myonlinetraininghub.com/excel-forum
Great work Mynda.
If I use VSTACK to consolidate my data, can I use the range created in power query? I tried but I got null. Please help. Thanks
Yes, but since spilled arrays don't work in tables, you have to give the spilled array a name and then create a new blank query and use =Excel.CurrentWorkbook() to get the data.
@@MyOnlineTrainingHub I am very grateful for the timely response. It's working now. Thanks for always there for us. You are great.
You are god
Glad you liked my video 😊
Never before has the word 'exciting' had to do so much heavy lifting.
Depends how much info Excel you are 😉
Please in minute 3.03
In output of formula b118.
How to know each element belongs to which name column.is there a formula for this?
In this example I had already added the column headers in row 117, but you could also bring them in automatically by increasing the first range in VSTACK to include row 109, which are the header labels for the first range.
Is there any point or benefit using this over Power Query?
Power query requires a refresh, formulas instantly update.
@@MyOnlineTrainingHub Awesome. Thanks.
How to keep the black cell still blank instead of “0” using the Vstack?
Perhaps on a row only one column does not have an empty cell because there is not a fit criteria.
You could use a custom number format to hide the zeros: www.myonlinetraininghub.com/excel-custom-number-format-guide#_Toc474757758
hi
Will you do a =@GL some time?
Not sure what you're referring to.
@@MyOnlineTrainingHub global formula looking something like this =@GLCurrentPeriodEvo
Sorry, that still doesn't give me enough information. Perhaps you can post your question and sample Excel file on our forum where we can help you further: www.myonlinetraininghub.com/excel-forum
Are all data you are using are in TABLE format?
Not all. You're welcome to download the example Excel file from the link in the video description.
Apart from the insider channel, has anyone got these? I haven't. Which version/ channel?
Hi Prasanta, they're being rolled out to the 365 current channel. Check if you have an update available. If not, check again in a few days and so on until you get them.
A very clear video, but the purpose of these functions seems to be to kludge around bad data design.
Indeed! I must tell people daily that their data should be in a tabular layout!
Pragmatic, I’d say. Much as we want nicely formatted data to work with, we very often don’t get it.
Is there a reason that VStack and HStack do not show up as available functions/formulas for me, even though I have MS Office 365? I have a definite use for the VStack, but can't seem to get my Excel to recognize it. Thanks!
These functions are being rolled out to the current channel. You might need to update Office or you might be on the semi-annual channel, in which case you’ll have to wait a bit longer, or switch to the current channel.
Just a comment: The description of how to ignore things has a header page where "ignore" is misspelled as "ingore." Just a heads-up.
😁 typos 🤦♀️
Hello mam please make a VBA macro playlist I need this VBA macro coarse in your channel because your language is very easy and good so please do this what I said please 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks for the suggestion and kind words!
@@MyOnlineTrainingHub so mam you will make playlist or not ???
You didn't say ??
Probably not, to be honest.
I always love your videos, but this one i am struggling with because the =VSTACK(("NAME","REGION","REVENUE"),A2:C6,F2:H7) sits there just like this on the cell returning no results. What am I doing wrong. Hope you are enjoying your first month of spring :)
You need to surround the column heading array in curly braces, not parentheses.
@@MyOnlineTrainingHub Thank you very much Mynda
not available in excek 2021, how to solution ms ?
You need a Microsoft 365 license for these functions.
Wow... I viewed this video first...lol
Glad you liked it 😊
It's a pity that VSTACK/HSTACK return "0" if cell is empty. One way to get around it is: =LET(val;VSTACK(F1:J1);IF(LEN(val)=0;"";val))
Hi Johny, that formula only works if the last table in the stack is the one that has empty rows. If it's one of the middle tables you'll see blank rows instead of the zeros, but you can achieve this with number formatting too.
I could not download excel files

kick-ass soft!
Anyone else notice that vstack just stopped working? Just returns a 0 in the formula cell.
Still works for me. You're welcome to post your question and sample Excel file on our forum where someone can help you further: www.myonlinetraininghub.com/excel-forum
@MyOnlineTrainingHub thank you i will. Can't post an example because of my work but it's so strange. On a single page it works. But when you reference a second page or 3d ref then it returns a 0 in the cell the formula was entered in.
Thanks for the reply and videos always very helpful
