List of Calc 'Spreadsheet' functions
The so-called 'Spreadsheet' functions find values in tables, or cell references; they include LOOKUP, SEARCH, ADDRESS. They could thus also be described as 'Lookup' functions.
| Spreadsheet Lookup functions | |
| ADDRESS | returns a text representation of a cell reference, given row and column numbers. |
| CHOOSE | returns a value from a list, given an index number. |
| HLOOKUP | returns a value from a table row, in the column found by lookup in the first row. |
| INDEX | returns the contents of a cell, given row and column number. |
| INDIRECT | returns a reference, given a text string. |
| LOOKUP | returns result from one single-cell-wide table, corresponding to a lookup search in another. |
| MATCH | returns the position in a single row or column table matching a search criterion. |
| OFFSET | returns the contents of a cell, given a reference and a desired offset from that reference. |
| VLOOKUP | returns a value from a table column, in the row found by lookup in the first column.
|
| Spreadsheet Information functions | |
| AREAS | returns the number of individual ranges in a multiple range. |
| COLUMN | returns the column number(s), given a reference. |
| COLUMNS | returns the number of columns in a given range. |
| ERRORTYPE | returns the number corresponding to an error value. |
| INFO | returns information about the current working environment. |
| ROW | returns the row number(s), given a reference. |
| ROWS | returns the number of rows in a given range. |
| SHEET | returns the sheet number, given a reference. |
| SHEETS | returns the number of sheets, given a reference.
|
| Other functions | |
| DDE | returns information from other documents and applications, using the "DDE" protocol. |
| HYPERLINK | sets a cell to open a hyperlink (in another application) when clicked. |
| STYLE | applies a style to a cell (for example a colour). |
