Microsoft ® Excel ® Text Functions Syntax: =FIND(find_text,within_text,[start_num]) Arguments: find_text Required The text you want to find. within_text Required The text string containing the text you want to find. start_num Optional Specifies the character at which to start the search.
6
Microsoft ® Excel ® Text Functions Description: Locates one text string within a second text string, and returns the number of the starting position of the first text string from the first character of the second text string Remarks: FIND always counts each character. The first character in within_text is character number 1. If you omit start_num, it is assumed to be 1. FIND is case sensitive. If find_text is "" (empty text), FIND matches the first character in the search string (that is, the character numbered start_num or 1).
7
Microsoft ® Excel ® Text Functions Errors: #VALUE! – If find_text does not appear in within_text #VALUE! – If start_num is not greater than zero #VALUE! – If start_num is greater than the length of within_text

Microsoft ® Excel ® Lookup Functions Syntax: = HLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,row_index_num,range_lookup) Arguments: lookup_value Required The value to search in the first row of the table or range. table_array Required The range of cells that contains the data. row_index_num Required The row number in table_array from which the matching value will be returned range_lookup Optional A logical value that specifies whether you want HLOOKUP to find an exact match or an approximate match.
101
Microsoft ® Excel ® Lookup Functions Description: Searches for a value in the top row of a table or an array of values, and then returns a value in the same column from a row you specify in the table or array. Remarks: If HLOOKUP can't find lookup_value, and range_lookup is TRUE, it uses the largest value that is less than lookup_value. If lookup_value is smaller than the smallest value in the first row of table_array, HLOOKUP returns the #N/A error value.
102
Microsoft ® Excel ® Lookup Functions Errors: #VALUE! – If row_index_num is less than 1 #REF! – If row_index_num is greater than the number of rows in the table_array #N/A – If range_lookup is FALSE and an exact match cannot be found #N/A – If lookup_value is less than the smallest value in the first row of table_array

ABC 1AxlesBearingBolts 2449 35710 46811 Formula Description (Result) Looks up Axles in row 1, and returns the value from row 2 that's in the same column. (4) =HLOOKUP("Axles",A1:C4,2,TRUE) =HLOOKUP("Bearings",A1:C4,3,FALSE) Looks up Bearings in row 1, and returns the value from row 3 that's in the same column. (7) =HLOOKUP("B",A1:C4,3,TRUE) Looks up B in row 1, and returns the value from row 3 that's in the same column. Because B is not an exact match, the next largest value that is less than B is used: Axles. (5) =HLOOKUP("Bolts",A1:C4,4) Looks up Bolts in row 1, and returns the value from row 4 that's in the same column. (11)
104
Microsoft ® Excel ® Lookup Functions Syntax: =INDEX(array,row_num,[column_num]) Arguments: array Required A range of cells or an array constant. row_num Optional Selects the row in array from which to return a value. o If row_num is omitted, column_num is required. column_num Optional Selects the column in array from which to return a value. o If column_num is omitted, row_num is required.
105
Microsoft ® Excel ® Lookup Functions Description: Returns the value of an element in a table or an array, selected by the row and column number indexes. Remarks: If both the row_num and column_num arguments are used, INDEX returns the value in the cell at the intersection of row_num and column_num. Errors: #REF! – If row_num and column_num do not point to a cell within array
106
Microsoft ® Excel ® Lookup Functions Syntax: =MATCH(lookup_value, lookup_array, [match_type]) Arguments: lookup_value Required The value that you want to match in lookup_array. lookup_array Required The range of cells being searched. match_type Optional Specifies how Excel matches lookup_value with values in lookup_array. o The number -1, 0, or 1
107
Microsoft ® Excel ® Lookup Functions Description: Searches for a specified item in a range of cells, and then returns the relative position of that item in the range Remarks: The lookup_value argument can be a value (number, text, or logical value) or a cell reference to a number, text, or logical value. MATCH returns the position of the matched value within lookup_array, not the value itself. MATCH does not distinguish between uppercase and lowercase letters when matching text values. Errors: #N/A – If MATCH is unsuccessful in finding a match
108
Microsoft ® Excel ® Lookup Functions ValueBehaviorRestrictions 1 MATCH finds the largest value that is less than or equal to lookup_value. The values in the lookup_array argument must be placed in ascending order. 0 MATCH finds the first value that is exactly equal to lookup_value. None MATCH finds the smallest value that is greater than or equal to lookup_value. The values in the lookup_array argument must be placed in descending order. Default

Access creates databases ◦ Data is stored in various separate tables by subject or task ◦ The data is related and can be brought together in ways that you specify
111
_______ are the most important parts of a database. ______ store your data in rows and columns. All databases contain one or more of these. _______ retrieve and process your data. They can combine data from different tables, update your data, and perform calculations on your data. _____ control data entry and data views. They provide visual cues that make data easier to work with. _______ summarize and print your data. They turn the data in your tables and queries into documents for communicating ideas.
112
To distinguish one record from another, tables can contain a primary key field. ◦ The primary key is an identifier—such as a part number, a product code, or an employee ID—that's unique to each record. ◦ The primary key should be a piece of information that won't change frequently. ◦ When tables relate, the primary key of one table becomes a foreign key of the other table.
