We hope this tutorial helps you understand how to use the MATCH function in Microsoft Excel; if you have questions about the tutorial, let us know in the comments.

The MATCH function returns the position of a value (in a list, table, database). And, the INDEX-MATCH functions used together make extracting data from a table a breeze.

Use MATCH for Row and Column Numbers: Instead of hardcoding row and column numbers in the INDEX function, use MATCH to dynamically find the correct positions.
