Love your videos! Frequent and consistently good content from you 😄 Little nitpick about value ranges (categories): I use same number both as end of one range and start of the next one - this way I will not lose any values in-between, like 500 and a half, as 500 I commonly see datetime ranges sliced with leftover values (say, reports for Monday 00:00 -23:59, Tuesday 00:00 - 23:59, etc - losing the last minute of the day). Obviously this is only a problem if your values can at all fall in those cracks between your chosen ranges and you care about them.
Wow this helped me. I was looking to reference an existing address if "Lastname" existed in our member list. =IFERROR(DGET('Memberlist'!$A$1:$L$400,"Address",{Lastname;D2})) Then expanded this across some column headers and many rows. Wow, hundreds of address labels compiled in a minute. THANK YOU!
You are a star - you don't know what a big help this video has done!!!!!!!!!! 🙏🙏🙏
THANK YOU , THANK YOU, THANK YOU. Much love from Malaysia.
Ive been looking for this solution for a while. Thanks a lot
Thanks for posting! Very interesting!
Awesome! worked beautifully, great explanation. much better than concatenating strings before doing vlookup

Make sure you watch the video about database functions in general so that you understand all the little weird details about these functions. Otherwise you may end up getting some funny results.
Very useful and interesting as usual, thank you
Great video, it helped me out. Thanks.
Great Video! I've tried with vlookup looking for multiple columns but not successful. I have learned something new. Thanks.
Excellent !
Very very helpful, Thanks
This is also perfect for finding dates between date ranges.
Thank you. Very helpful.
Great video. How do you get the array bracket nested in the formula
Nice to know about the comparison operators! Thanks
Thank You very much for great explanation 3:00
Is there a way to build in a does not equal aspect to the array? Or a way to filter out more to prevent the duplicate error?
very usefull, thanks
Thank you very much
Can I use this to return a duplicate value (target column: A:A) and output that return value (C:C) based on one cell (B:B)? By the way, how can I reach you out to discuss this in-depth?
This was helpful, thank you

Adicionando que em alguns países como o Brasil, na hora de criar as Matrizes com os colchetes, o comando só funciona usando barra invertida ("\") no lugar da vírgula ... In some countries you have to use "\" instead of commas for the Curly Brackets formula

Thanks for posting. Why in the minute 9.40 we had to use & to reference a cell and in the previous exercise we did not, we just name b2, d2 in the dget function?
Yet another amazing video thank you! I really appreciate it if you could write me the formula to use the same DGET with an Array so it could fill down I've looked everywhere & cant find DGET with an Array formula - I have multiple conditions like above
I appreciate your videos! Thank you!
Thank You
can dget work with partial match? The criteria is "Y2019595" and in the database the cell has "Y2019553, Y2019595, Y2019616, Y2019665, Y2019695". Dget cannot find the value. Tried "=" &"Y2019595" but didn't work.
Hello, how would I look up the value with a close match and not an exact match
Hello sir Can you tell me how to make a individual employee training history record from a bulk training record
great video, is it possible to do a more than one dget, I mean if we had a more than just From and To, let say we add first transit, second transit, etc. And it changed the price. Is it possible with the DGET Function or we combined it with IF function? thanks

Sounds like DGET should handle it.
Hey, I didn't know how great DGET function is! However, how would you include DGET into an ARRAYFORMULA? Like you are copying the formula into each row, it would be even more powerful, if you can use ARRAYFORMULA to get that result automatically for each row. But how?

Can DGET call for two columns like Vlookup with array? I mean, in case with data in your video I want to call "Distance" and "Cost" as a result. How the formula would be like? Thanks :)

Hm, for now-a-while I use Vlookup for handle that problem-question Sir. With my example: My database was some columns in A1 to D4 (Name, Birth Date, Class, Value) My example problem: In cell F1 to I4, I want to input data with two criteria (Name and Birth Date), and recall Class and Value as an output/results. My formula in column H2 is: =ArrayFormula(ifna(VLOOKUP(F2:F4&G2:G4,{A2:A4&B2:B4,A2:D4},{4,5},0))) I created unique_name from column A and B, and from column F and G which is "Name" and "Birth Date", this A2:A4&B2:B4 and F2:F4&G2:G4 (I called it "array-artificial-column") was the key. Again, that's "My own customize Vlookup formula"--that I just created--was inspiring by your youtube lecture video. Thank's a lot Sir :)

Thank you, this is very informative. Question though, I keep getting -9999 as a result on DGET when it is supposed to be 50.4. Other cells are doing just fine but there are a couple of cells that produce this result. My code for all of the cells is =IFERROR(DGET(GSM!$A$1:$D,"Rainfall",{"Mun","Bar";$C526,$D526}),"") I am wondering why is that?

Watch my video about database functions in general so you understand how matching works. It's possible for example that you have multiple options for Rainfall, like Rainfall Tomorrow, Rainfall Today etc. and database functions have very unusual way of handling text matches.

No sir, I only have one column for rainfall... other cells for rainfall outputs are good, however, there are a few that are giving me -9999 outputs instead of the correct ones. I wish I can share with you the document or even just the screenshot.
Sometime it have more than 1 result and when that happen it will throw error: More than one match found in DGET evaluation. How do I force it to take the last or first record?
