Frequently Asked Questions

Find Quick Answers

What is VLOOKUP and how does this tool work?
VLOOKUP is an Excel function that searches for a value in the first column of a table and returns a value from a specified column in the same row. This tool replicates that functionality entirely in your browser using JavaScript, so no data is sent to any server.
What format should I use for the data table?
Enter your table with each row on a new line. Separate columns with commas, tabs, or spaces. The first row is treated as headers. For example: 'Name, Age, City' on the first line, then 'John, 30, New York' on the next.
Can I use approximate matching with this tool?
Yes, you can toggle between exact match (default) and approximate match. Approximate match requires the first column to be sorted in ascending order and will find the closest value less than or equal to the lookup value.
Is my data secure when using this tool?
Absolutely. All processing happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. No data is uploaded to any server, ensuring complete privacy and security.
