Lookupvalue value between two values
Hi all,
In one table I have the Age of IDcontacts, and in another table I have AgeRanges such as :
| Id | AgeFrom | AgeTo | Description |
| 1 | 0 | 10 | 0-10 |
| 2 | 11 | 20 | 11-20 |
| 3 | 21 | 30 | 21-30 |
| 4 | 31 | 40 | 31-40 |
| 5 | 41 | 50 | 41-50 |
| 6 | 51 | 60 | 51-60 |
| 7 | 61 | 70 | 61-70 |
| 8 | 71 | 80 | 71-80 |
| 9 | 81 | 90 | 81-90 |
| 10 | 91 | 200 | > 90 |
I would like to connect both tables. I would like to do the equivalent of a VLOOKUP TRUE in excel, such as 'if the value Age is between 0 and 10, then display'0-10'
I tried a column such as :
AgeID = IF([Age]<11,1,IF([Age]<21,2,IF([Age]<31,3,IF([Age]<41,4,IF([Age]<51,5,IF([Age]<61,6,IF([Age]<71,7,IF([Age]<81,8,IF([Age]<91,9,10)))))))))
so I could link it to the Age range table, but the rationale is wrong and I believe it's possible to do it with a Lookupvalue.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Anonymous Please try this as a "New Column"
Assuming you age descriptions in a separate table and you want to retrieve the age description into another table based on the age.
AgeDesc = CALCULATE(VALUES(Test123Lkp[Description]),FILTER(Test123Lkp,Test123Data[Age]>=Test123Lkp[AgeFrom] && Test123Data[Age] <= Test123Lkp[AgeTo]))
Anonymous But if you see the screenshot that I've posted, it has age values like 25, 35 which are in between the age range but not as starting values. If you want to handle null values in age, then add another condition to exclude blank values.
AgeDesc = CALCULATE(VALUES(Test123Lkp[Description]),FILTER(Test123Lkp,Test123Data[Age]>=Test123Lkp[AgeFrom] && Test123Data[Age] <= Test123Lkp[AgeTo] && Test123Data[Age]<>BLANK()))

PattemManohar, actually it works only partially. With this formula it only notes as 11-20 those who's age is 11, 21-30 those who's age is 21, etc. Also, it notes 0-10 those who's age is Blank.

For ranges you need to use the AND statement
e.g IF ( AND([Age]>=21, [Age]<30), 1, ....
I dont think your logic is correct
Hi how to write that in Power Query M Language to create a new column please ?
