Left Lookup

 

The VLOOKUP function only looks to the right. To look up a value in any column and return the corresponding value to the left, simply use INDEX and MATCH.

1. The MATCH function returns the position of a value in a given range.

Explanation: 104 found at position 4 in the range $G$4:$G$7.

2. Use this result and the INDEX function to return the 4th value in the range $E$4:$E$7.

3. Drag the formula in cell B2 down to cell B11.

Drag the Formula Down

Note: when we drag this formula down, the absolute references ($E$4:$E$7 and $G$4:$G$7) stay the same, while the relative reference (A2) changes to A3, A4, A5, etc.

4. If you have Excel 365 or Excel 2021, simply use the XLOOKUP function to perform a left lookup.

Keyboard Shortcut to "Toggle Line Comments" in DBeaver

-
Image
In DBeaver, "Ctrl+/" is the default shortcut to Toggle Line Comments. However, in keyboards without a dedicated / key, this may not work out of the box. In my case, the / is obtained with "Shift+7", which means I'd need to set "Ctrl+Shit+7" as the shortcut,  which DBeaver uses by default as the shortcut to "Activate results/panel": So, to set enable the Toggle Line Comments, I needed to remove the "Activate results/panel" configuration from the Preferences and I'm now able to use "Ctrl+Shit+7" for the Toggle Line Comments.
