LOOKUP Calc worksheet function
This command searches for a value in one range and returns the contents of the corresponding position in a
second range.
Usage
LOOKUP (Lookup_value, Lookup_range, Result_range)
The value for which to search in the first range
The first range to search and contains only one row or one column; the range can
contain numbers, text or logical values; to search Lookup_range, the expression
in the range must be placed in ascending order (for example −2, −1, 0, 2 ... A
through Z, False, True); the search is not case sensitive
Range of one row or one column that is the same size as the Lookup_range
Details
If Lookup_value does not have an exact match in Lookup_range, the largest value that is less
than or equal to Lookup_value is found, and the corresponding position in Lookup_range is
returned. When Lookup_value does not exist or is smaller than the data in Lookup_range, #N/A
is returned.
