MS Office Forum / Excel / Worksheet Functions / February 2007Which Excel Functions Require Arrays to be Sorted?
Can anyone tell me which Excel functions require sorted ascending arrays. For example, I know that the Lookup function only works if the array it looks at is sorted in ascending fashion: LOOKUP(LookupValue, Ascending Array) Are there any other which require this? Thanks EM MATCH, VLOOKUP and HLOOKUP don't require that things be sorted in any order *if* you use the optional arguments to look for an exact match. If you want approximate matches (the default, i believe, in all cases) then a sort order is necessary. Afaik, LOOKUP is the only function that requires sorted data under any circumstance.
