lookup function
I have a genral question regarding the vlookup function. I have noticed that
there are some vlookup fromulas that have a the lookup array that is 1/(condition) for examlpe: =LOOKUP(2,1/(-B11:K11<0),B11:K11), could someone please explain to me why the array is 1/ divided by the condition? I truly would appreciate it. Thanks in Advance. Nikki |

I have never seen something like this. does the lookup work? if so what data
would be in B11:k11 and what does it respond? "Nikki" wrote: I have a genral question regarding the vlookup function.
