Sample document showing how to use VLOOKUP correctly

QA Team,
Before accepting a bug like this we need to be very careful to review the
definition of the function. This ensures that we will not break
interoperability with ourselves or MS Office.

VLOOKUP Function

   =VLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,col_index_num,range_lookup)


where:

   Argument     Definition of argument
   ---------------------------------------------------------------------

   lookup_value The value to be found in the first column of the array.

   table_array  The table of information in which data is looked up.

   col_index    The column number in the table_array for which the
                matching value should be returned.

   range_lookup It is a logical value that specifies whether
                you want to find an exact match or an approximate match.
                If TRUE or omitted, an approximate match is returned; in
                other words, if an exact match is not found, the next
                largest value that is less than the lookup_value is
                returned. If FALSE, VLOOKUP finds an exact match. If an
                exact match is not found, the #N/A error value is returned.


Therefore, to perform a case-sensitive VLOOKUP, you need to combine the VLOOKUP
functions with a helper functions.

You can find multiple tutorial on the Internet, such as:

In my attached example, VLOOKUP is performing a case-sensitive Lookup for "joe"
