FAQ

What should I check if XLOOKUP returns an error?

  3. Check whether the referenced data type fits the current calculation.
  4. Adjust the formula based on the error message and save it again.

Can XLOOKUP be used with other functions?

  2. Then use that result as an argument in functions such as IF or AND.
  3. Save the nested formula and confirm that the output matches your expectation.

Does XLOOKUP recalculate automatically after data import?
