Answer

First of all what I would suggest is have a clear picture of the function which you are trying to use. What the function will do? and definitely if you know the usage of the function then i am sure you will pick the correct function on your own.

So I am giving you a small example file and some of the links to know more about what is Vlookup and how it works.

I have created a sample file for you to know how to use Vlookup. Click or Copy and paste the below link in web browser to download the Example file.
