what the heck is that ? Does it come w office 365?

As an aside does anyone know what LAMBDA is?
Yes. Basically you can use LAMBDA to create a reusable custom formula written with standard excel formulas (not vba)

Check out the new xlookup. Takes care of all the issues with vlookup and much more straightforward than index match
thanks for this! This helps a lot!

Type .15 into any cell, and do ctrl+c.
Then, select the data you want to multiply, right click, do paste special, and select multiply.

I do it the long and ignorant way:
- add column
- =[cell from previous column] * 1.15
- auto fill the formula above to all rows
- copy the added column
- Paste special the added column over the original one, pasting values
- Delete the added column

Cool shortcut to do it simpler, thanks!

I had a multi-tab workbook I was working on. Hit save religiously. I moved it from a folder to my desktop, and now only the last sheet is there. How do I get the other sheets back?

ETA: Google tells me I can't save multiple sheets in a csv file, which would explain why the other sheets are gone. Is there any way to get them back, or am I wasting my time?

Did you check the original folder in case the other sheets got left behind somehow?
