One play is to invert the lookup table ..
Assuming the vlookup table is in A1:B10
10 19
9 14
8 13
7 13
6 14
5 19
4 18
3 15
2 20
1 20
we could invert the table by putting in say, D1:
=INDEX(A:A,MATCH(SMALL($A:$A,ROW()),$A:$A,0))
copy D1 across to E1, then fill down to E10
This yields:
1 20
2 20
3 15
4 18
5 19
6 14
7 13
8 13
9 14
10 19
Then we could use VLOOKUP in the normal manner
by pointing at cols D & E (instead of cols A & B)

Hi,
I am using the vlookup function in order to find prices of my products
from a column of a worksheet.
But I need to make vlookup to search from bottom to top and not the
other way around.
How can I do that?
Thanks in advance,
Antonis.
