00:00In Google Sheet, how can you effectively use index match and date value function?
00:04This was one of the very interesting questions inquired by one of my viewers.
00:07But this is not the best mix of function as the better one would be to use the filter function.
00:13Let me show you how.
00:13We start off with using a date value function to convert the number of days between D8 and
00:18January 1st, 1900.
00:20Then we run the match function against the output of the date value in column A with the
00:24exact match, then return the row number of 12 for our date here.
00:27Finally, we use the index function to retrieve the value from column B for row 12.
00:32This technique returns the very first occurrence of the date.
00:35However, if you like the formula to return every occurrence, then you need to use a filter
00:39function and a date value function, where the filter function returns the value from column
00:43B for all occurrence of date in column A that matches cell D18.
