A Google Spreadsheets function that uses a search_key to look in the first column of a specified range and return the value in a column of the range, specified by a 1-based index, from the first row in which the search_key is found. An optional fourth parameter may be set to FALSE to ensure only an exact match is returned. The vertical version of HLOOKUP. Do not use for Excel which has [vlookup].
