Hi all,

Is there a way when importing a table from a server to only bring in info between a certian date. The hole file is massive & taking ages to bring in.
I'm looking for a filter like MSQUERY in Excel.

Thanks

Denis

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.

Can you not make a link to the table rather than importing it?

Then you could use a query to filter any unwanted data.
