Shortcuts are a great way to save time and energy in Excel, but there are more than 200, so the list can seem overwhelming.

In this video, we'll look at how you can use the CHOOSE function for simple lookups. The CHOOSE function doesn't need an external table, and can sometimes replace more complicated formulas based on VLOOKUP, INDEX and MATCH, or nested IFs.
This video shows how to setup VLOOKUP with a table, and how to use the MATCH function inside VLOOKUP to generate a dynamic column index. This makes it easy to refer to columns by name inside VLOOKUP, instead of hardcoding the column number. As a bonus, you can reorder the columns and the formula will keep working correctly.
