A new function introduced on December 3, 2020 by the Excel team at Microsoft is getting rave reviews. 🔥

And it appears warranted.

It is essentially VBA (Visual Basic) without needing Macros to create User-Defined Functions (customized calculations) within plain Excel (.xlsx) files.

Review the content below to start to get a sense of why this is a big deal!

“Microsoft has just announced a brand new function for Excel (Office 365 Beta / Insider version) — LAMBDA.

The power of this latest addition to the Excel family of functions cannot be overstated. This is going to REVOLUTIONISE how you build formulae in Excel, allowing you to create custom functions without code.” — Liam Bastick
