I have a range called Data with 3 columns and 100 rows. I have a few different vlookups that use it as the lookup table. Problem is, some search the first column and some the second. I’m trying not to define a new named range, or otherwise hardcode the range that excludes the first column anywhere. So I would like to either:
- Tell vlookup to search in the second column, rather than the normal first column
or - Pass vlookup a subrange of Data, something like SUBRANGE(Data; 2:4, 1:100)
Is there a way to do this with any ease? I know that I could stitch together something with the Match function, but that’s kinda ugly and I’d prefer a cleaner way.
