Thank you so much for these videos! Very educational and your practical examples are so helpful.
Great, thanks to your video I learned how to find DMin and DMax for many items in a list by using the array in the criteria part of the function. Thank you!!!
Another GREAT tutorial! The way you explain the whys and hows really makes it so simple and easy do understand. Well done and thank you!
Yeah, My first comment as well. Why? Because this was the best tutorial I have watched. others get the job done but leave some to be desired. You made it crystal clear for those with a working knowledge of spreadsheets. Thank you very much!
Woo-hoo! DGET rulez, and you rock! As always, useful stuff, delivered brilliantly. Thanks a lot for your work!
Excellent video, was hoping for something like this, thank you!
Cool video, good alternative to Vlookup.
You’re a good guy. Thanks
Thank you for all of your great content
Good job !!!!
That errotype formula opened a possibility to me to create a panel where I can display which sheets are pending to refresh some importrange, with just a glance! Very nice!!!

Yea, it can be useful in certain cases.
Thank you very much for this tutorial video. I have since replaced the Vlookup function with DGet. DGet is far more flexible than Vlookup where it can look both right and left of the column records and easier to understand. It is as powerful as Vlookup. Thanks again for doing this tutorial video.

DGET is more powerful than vlookup, thanks to explain this through this video.

Hi, Thanks for this tutorial. What if I want to look up a value from two datasets that have similar fields with the same criteria?
hey, thank you for the video. the range criteria is handy for multiple OR criteria, however, i could not figure out a way to do multiple AND criteria.

Arrays like this should give you and {"Stock_Number","Size";"4953-66-590",9}
Not defending vlookup as i find database functions really useful but you can also create an array for the range you’re looking for in vlookup which would allow you to search for value on the left hand side.
is underscore ande space do the same thing in naming the collumn?
I'm having issue with DGET and VLOOKUP when the item being looked up is very similar. For example I am looking up a column where names are B9, B12, B15, B18, etc. Both functions return no matches found.
Can this functions doing via google form? Maybe using dropdown list for criteria and to write or update certatin cell or cells ?

Great video - from a resource utilization perspective, what is faster? DGET, VLOOKUP, or INDEX/MATCH on a google sheet with 99 columns and 90k rows?

VLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH are likely to be faster, since they only look for the first match.

Afternoon, how could the formula where you specify the lookup column name and cell it's looking up be adapted for Excel?

Thanks! Is there a reason why XLOOKUP is not covered in this comparison?

Probably two years overdue, but yes, you can use IMPORTRANGE as the dataset for DGET function. It actually doesn't care how you get the dataset, any array would do. For instance, you can nest DGET on top of QUERY with IMPORTRANGE within in order to output one result based on multiple criteria in another table and error out when there are multiple matches. That won't be robust: DGET might error out before QUERY+IMPORTRANGE complete their task, but it's possible, and in some situations might work. However, keep in mind this is very costly in terms of performance. If you have the need to fill a lot of data, and especially when that happens on multiple sheets, I'd suggest making a receiving sheet for that and refer to it instead of using IMPORTRANGE directly, because each sheet imports ranges independently from the other.

Depends on data. The reason VLOOKUP is likely to be faster is because it will search until it finds the first match and it will stop. DGET will always search the whole dataset.

Nice! I was looking for a way to handle the error returns, either finding one or not finding any. Since there are only two types of error, I used this code here: do you have any better suggestions? =if(isblank(B12);"";iferror(dget(Dados202206!A:B;2;B11:B12);if(error.type(dget(Dados202206!B:B;1;B11:B12))=6;"há +de1";"nenhum")))
