When using Microsoft Excel, Word, or PowerPoint, you may notice that recent documents are automatically saved and displayed for easy reference in the future. While this can be convenient, it can also compromise your privacy and create clutter on your screen. Fortunately, there are simple ways to remove these recent documents and keep your files hidden.

Cara Mencari Data yang Sama di Excel dengan Vlookup
Excel users often need to find and match data in different columns or worksheets. Fortunately, Excel has a built-in function called Vlookup that makes this task easy and efficient. Here are six ways to use Vlookup to find data in Excel:
- Exact Match Vlookup
- Approximate Match Vlookup
- Two-Way Lookup
- Case-Sensitive Vlookup
- Vlookup with Multiple Criteria
- Vlookup with IF Function
Exact Match Vlookup
The first and most common way to use Vlookup is for exact matching. This means that the function will find and return the exact match for the lookup value in the table array. Here’s an example:
In this example, we want to find the exact match for the employee ID “E101”. We use the Vlookup formula =VLOOKUP(“E101”,A2:B6,2,FALSE), which looks for the lookup value “E101” in the first column of the table array (A2:B6) and returns the corresponding value in the second column.
Approximate Match Vlookup
The second way to use Vlookup is for approximate matching. This means that the function will find and return the closest match for the lookup value in the table array. Here’s an example:
In this example, we want to find the range that the score of 93 falls into. We use the Vlookup formula =VLOOKUP(93,B2:C7,2,TRUE), which looks for the lookup value 93 in the first column of the table array (B2:C7) and returns the corresponding value in the second column. Note that we set the fourth argument to TRUE to indicate that we want approximate matching.
Two-Way Lookup
The third way to use Vlookup is for two-way lookups, which means that the function will find and return a value that matches two criteria instead of one. Here’s an example:
In this example, we want to find the salary of the employee with ID “E103” and designation “Developer”. We use the Vlookup formula =VLOOKUP(“E103”,A2:D8,MATCH(“Developer”,A1:D1,0),FALSE), which first uses the MATCH function to find the column index of “Developer” in the top row of the table array (A1:D1), then uses Vlookup to find the salary for the matching employee ID in the first column.
Case-Sensitive Vlookup
The fourth way to use Vlookup is for case-sensitive matching, which means that the function will differentiate between uppercase and lowercase letters. Here’s an example:
In this example, we want to find the name of the employee with ID “e102”. We use the Vlookup formula =VLOOKUP(“e102”,A2:B6,2,FALSE), with the lookup value in lowercase letters, and get an error because Excel cannot find an exact match. We then use the Vlookup formula =VLOOKUP(“e102”,A2:B6,2,FALSE), with the lookup value in uppercase letters, and get the correct result.
Vlookup with Multiple Criteria
The fifth way to use Vlookup is for finding data that matches multiple criteria, such as two or more columns. Here’s an example:
In this example, we want to find the experience of the employee who has ID “E102” and designation “Developer”. We use the Vlookup formula =VLOOKUP(“E102″&”Developer”,A2:D8,4,FALSE), which combines the two criteria into one lookup value and looks for it in the first column of the table array.
Vlookup with IF Function
The sixth way to use Vlookup is in combination with the IF function, which allows for more complex calculations and conditions. Here’s an example:
In this example, we want to find the salary grade of the employee with ID “E104”. We use the IF function to create a condition that checks whether the salary falls within a certain range, then uses Vlookup to return the corresponding grade. The formula is =IF(F4<=40000,"G1",IF(F4<=60000,"G2",IF(F4<=80000,"G3","G4"))), where F4 is the cell with the Vlookup formula.
