Lookup & Reference ADDRESS String Row number Int Column number Int Absolute number (optional) Int A1 style (optional) Boolean Sheet name String The ADDRESS creates a cell address. Parameter Row is the row number and Column is the column number. Absolute number specifies the type of reference: 1 or omitted = Absolute, 2 = Absolute row, relative column, 3 = Relative row; absolute column and 4 = Relative. A1 Style specifies the style of the address to return. If A1 is set to TRUE (default) the address is returned in A1 style if it is set to FALSE in R1C1 style. Sheet name is the text specifying the name of the sheet. ADDRESS(row; col; absolute; style; sheet name) ADDRESS(6; 4) returns $D$6 ADDRESS(6; 4; 2) returns D$6 ADDRESS(6; 4; 2; FALSE; "Sheet1") returns Sheet1!R6C[4] ADDRESS(6; 4; 1; FALSE; "Sheet1") returns Sheet1!R6C4 ADDRESS(6; 4; 4; TRUE; "Sheet1") returns Sheet1!D6 AREAS Int Reference String Returns the number of areas in the reference string. An area can be asingle cell or a set of cells. AREAS(reference) AREAS(A1) returns 1 AREAS((A1; A2:A4)) returns 2 CHOOSE Index Int Arguments Returns the parameter specified by the index. CHOOSE(index; parameter1; parameter2;...) CHOOSE(1; "1st"; "2nd") returns "1st" CHOOSE(2; 3; 2; 4) returns 2 COLUMN Int Reference String The COLUMN function returns the column of given cell reference. If no parameter is specified the column of the current cell gets returned. COLUMN(reference) COLUMN(A1) returns 1 COLUMN(D2) returns 4 COLUMNS ROW COLUMNS Int Reference String The COLUMNS function returns the number of columns in a reference. COLUMNS(reference) COLUMNS(A1:C3) returns 3 COLUMNS(D2) returns 1 COLUMN ROWS INDEX Reference String Row Integer Column Integer If a range is given, returns value stored in a given row/column. If one cell is given, which contains an array, then one element of the array is returned. INDEX(cell, row, column) INDEX(range, row, column) INDEX(A1:C3;2;2), returns contents of B2 INDEX(A1;2;2), if A1 is a result of array calculation, returns its (2,2) element. INDIRECT Reference String A1 style (optional) Boolean Returns the content of the cell specified by the reference text. The second parameter is optional. INDIRECT(referenceText, a1 style) INDIRECT(A1), A1 contains "B1", and B1 1 => returns 1 INDIRECT("A1"), returns content of A1 ROW Int Reference String The ROW function returns the row of given cell reference. If no parameter is specified the row of the current cell gets returned. ROW(reference) ROW(A1) returns 1 ROW(D2) returns 2 ROWS COLUMN ROWS Int Reference String The ROWS function returns the number of rows in a reference. ROWS(reference) ROWS(A1:C3) returns 3 ROWS(D2) returns 1 ROW COLUMNS LOOKUP Lookup value String/Numeric Lookup vector String/Numeric Result vector String/Numeric The LOOKUP function looks up the first parameter in the lookup vector. It returns a value in the result Vector with the same index as the matching value in the lookup vector. If value is not in the lookup vector it takes the next lower one. If no value in the lookup vector matches an error is returned. The lookup vector must be in ascending order and lookup and result vector must have the same size. Numeric values, string and boolean values are recognized. Comparison between strings is case-insensitive. LOOKUP(value; lookup vector; result vector) LOOKUP(1.232; A1:A6; B1:B6) for A1 = 1, A2 = 2 returns the value of B1. HLOOKUP String/Numeric Lookup value String/Numeric Data source Array Row Int Sorted (optional) Boolean Look for a matching value in the first row of the given table, and return the value of the indicated row. Looks up the 'lookup value' in the first row of the 'data source'. If a value matches, the value in the 'row' and the column, the value was found in, is returned. If 'sorted' is true (default), the first row is assumed to be sorted. The search will end, if the 'lookup value' is lower than the value, currently compared to. HLOOKUP(Lookup value; data source; Row; Sorted) VLOOKUP String/Numeric Lookup value String/Numeric Data source Array Column Int Sorted (optional) Boolean Look for a matching value in the first column of the given table, and return the value of the indicated column. Looks up the 'lookup value' in the first column of the 'data source'. If a value matches, the value in the 'column' and the row, the value was found in, is returned. If 'sorted' is true (default), the first column is assumed to be sorted. The search will end, if the 'lookup value' is lower than the value, currently compared to. VLOOKUP(Lookup value; data source; Column; Sorted)
