Sometimes, you just want to vlookup and return only the visible value if there is a filtered list. 4 i have filtered column a and i need to apply vlookup formula on the visible cells in column a How do i achieve this in vba Number of total rows in the worksheet are 30,000 and the filtered rows are closed to 100. I am trying to figure out how to lookup information in a filtered table, returning only visible values For example, let's say that the data i want to use for the lookup is in cell a1, the lookup data is in cells a3:a10, and the data i want to return is in cells b3:b10
A normal lookup function would be vlookup (a1,a3:b10,2,false). A vlookup may return a value from a hidden row, which is usually undesirable when working with filtered views Similarly, match or index won’t restrict themselves to visible rows unless specifically told to To perform a lookup only on filtered (visible) data, you need to use techniques or functions that can recognise row visibility. Learn how to use vlookup in excel to return all matches, with methods like filter, advanced filter, and power query tools. The vlookup () function returns data from a lookup_array irrespective of the filter setting of the lookup_array
