Vlookup to the Left with Index and Match function

What if your lookup value is to the right of the information that you want VLOOKUP to return? Conventional wisdom says VLOOKUP cannot handle a negative column number in order to go left of the key.

Update All Sheets at same time in a Excel Workbook

Say you have to urgently submit a file with many sheets. For Example put a Header or write a same  data for all sheets. I will show you an amazingly powerful tool called Group mode. Say that you have 12 worksheets that are mostly identical. You need to add totals to all 12 worksheets. To enter Group mode, right-click on any worksheet tab and choose Select All Sheets. The name of the workbook in the title bar now indicates that you are in Group mode. Anything you do to the January worksheet will now happen to all the sheets in the workbook. Why is this dangerous? If you get distracted and forget that you are in Group mode, you might start entering January data and overwriting data on the 11 other worksheets! When you are done adding totals, don’t forget to right-click a sheet tab and choose Ungroup Sheets.
