Excel for Accounting Professionals Session 5: Error Trapping and Improving Lookups

Category:
As popular as the VLOOKUP function is, it has limitations. This session walks through the limitations and suggests how to improve the VLOOKUP function. We then discuss how to move beyond VLOOKUP altogether. We spend some time trapping errors with the IFERROR function, which was first rolled out with Excel 2007. The webcast is designed with time for you to work along. During the webcast, the instructor will provide time for you to complete the exercises using your Microsoft Excel for Windows.
