Many people struggle with these tasks, but there’s a solution that can make your life much easier: CelTools.

Why This Problem Happens

VLookup functions are notoriously difficult for those who don’t have a strong foundation in Excel formulas and VBA code. The complexity can be overwhelming, leading to errors and wasted time. Many people we’ve spoken to have tried using VLookup functions before and found them incredibly challenging.

Step 2: Open Excel and Activate CelTools

Once installed, open Excel and activate CelTools by going to CelTools > About > Activation. Enter your license number to unlock all features.

Step 3: Create or Edit Tables

Use the Table Creation tools in CelTools to create or edit tables effortlessly. This tool allows you to manipulate tables, insert VLookup and MATCH formulas, and much more.

Step 6: Jump To

The Jump To tool allows you to jump to any table on any opened workbook on any sheet. This is especially useful if you have a large number of tables spread across multiple documents.

Step 7: Combine All

If you want to combine all tables into a single sheet, use the Combine All tool. Simply select the sheets you want combined, and CelTools will create a new sheet with all the data.
