What are the best practices for using database-like queries in Excel.
Let's say you wish to join to sheets together och view a subset of
columns in a third sheet.
I've tried several different methods, but I dont think any of them are
completely good. I've used VLookup, Index, MS Query. (MS Query must be
the must forgotten MS product in history. It's like a time machine
back to Windows 3.11)
I've also tried alot of different methods for searching a range, based
on more than one criteria, and display the result, either a single
value or a sum based on several rows. Here i've tried the D-functions
and Array formulas. The D-functions is not that flexible because you
cannot specify the criterias inline as an array, it must be a
reference to cells, which makes it difficult to manage many DGET with
similar filters.
What are you best practices for doing stuff that is really basic
database-stuff in Excel?
