I have two suggestions to improve VLookup:

2. Make the column offset capable of negative values so that you can offset
to the left of the reference column.
If the functions in the freely downloadable file at

=VLookupLeft
It also allows any column of the lookup array, rather than just the
lefthand column, to be used as the lookup column.
