Retrieve the Adjacent Value from a Grid with XLOOKUP & Dynamic Arrays

You've got a grid and you want to input a code and retrieve the value tied to that code; e.g., input 33 and you want the name Trish.

This is easy if you have a single column of codes alongside a single column of values. That's a plain VLOOKUP or XLOOKUP. HOWEVER! that's not how this data is set up.

In this video I show how this can be done. But I also discuss the difference between using a single monstrous formula vs. taking intermediate steps.

We use TOCOL, OFFSET and IFERROR. So easy!
