Hi!
Just to check, spreadsheet lookup function is no longer supported?
Do you plan to implement it again any time soon?
Thanks in advance...

There have been no changes with spreadsheet functionality in years. Specifically what function are you referring to?

LOOKUP function. I saw that this was supported previously, now there is only VLOOKUP and HLOOKUP...
I can mwork it around with couple of auxiliary columns to replicate LOOKUP, but I am already using all 60 columns for formulas.
I need it to simply find first and last occurence of specific value in a range...

Ok this was only in old spreadsheets which were discontinued years ago. The available functions are documented here:

I came here also looking for the plain LOOKUP() function, as I need to find the *last* occurrence of a value in a VLOOKUP, not the first. I know there are other ways to get the result but was hoping to simply use this function.

Actually it looks like GetCorrespondingMatch() is the preferred approach now, I will give that a shot.
