XMATCH

Searches for a value in a one-dimensional array and returns the relative position of the item.

XMATCH outperforms function MATCH as it allows searches according to the search mode.

XMATCH(Search criterion; Search Array [; Match Mode [; Search Mode ] ] )

Search criterion: The value of any type to search for in Search Array.

Search Array: is the reference of the array or range to search.

Match Mode: (optional) specifies the match type. Values can be:

0: exact match (default). If Search criterion value is not found, then return the #N/A error.
-1: attempt exact match. If Search criterion value is not found, then return the next smaller item.
1: attempt exact match. If Search criterion value is not found, then return the next larger item.
2: a wildcard match where characters *, ?, and ~ have special meanings.
3: a regular expression match.

Search Mode: (optional) specifies the search mode to use.

1: returns the first occurrence starting from the first item of Search Array (default).
-1: reverse search. Returns the first occurrence starting from the last item of Search Array.
2: binary search that relies on Search Array being sorted in ascending order. If not sorted, invalid results will be returned.
-2: binary search that relies on Search Array being sorted in descending order. If not sorted, invalid results will be returned.

Match Mode values 2 and 3 cannot be combined with binary search (Search Mode value 2 or -2).

Any of the optional arguments can be omitted. An optional argument requires all preceding separators to be present.

ឧទាហរណ៍

Suppose we have built a small database table occupying the cell range A1:DO4 and containing basic information about 118 chemical elements. The first column contains the row headings “Element”, “Symbol”, “Atomic Number”, and “Relative Atomic Mass”. Subsequent columns contain the relevant information for each of the elements, ordered left to right by atomic number. For example, cells B1:B4 contain “Hydrogen”, “H”, “1” and “1.008”, while cells DO1:DO4 contain “Oganesson”, “Og”, “118”, and “294”.

	A	B	C	D	...	DO
1	Element	Hydrogen	Helium	Lithium	...	Oganesson
2	Symbol	H	He	Li	...	Og
3	Atomic Number	1	2	3	...	118
4	Relative Atomic Mass	1.008	4.0026	6.94	...	294

=XMATCH("Atomic Number"; A1:A4) returns 3, the third line of the A1:A4 array.

=XMATCH("Li"; A2:DO2) returns 4, the fourth column of the A2:DO2 array.
