问题
I am looking for the quickest way to look up the value in worksheet data and give the corresponding value in another column. The lookup must be done in VBA. Only 1 lookup is to be performed (no more lookups are to be done on the same dataset).
For instance, we have data in this form:
Using VBA, what is the fastest way to find a value in the column B which corresponds to the value "key990000" in the column A?
回答1:
I have tested several different functions in contexts of sorted and unsorted data, 100k and 1 million rows of data.
The fastest way is to use WorksheetFunction.Vlookup
or a combination of WorksheetFunction.Index
and WorksheetFunction.Match
. But in case 2 or more searches are to be done on the same column, then it's best to load data into array (which takes relatively more time) and loop through it (looping through a loaded array is extremely quick).
The summary results of performance tests (having both, 100 000 and 1 million rows of data)
| 100k rows | 1m rows |
---------------------------------------------
Sub | sort | uns | sort | uns |
---------------------------------------------
WsF_vlookup | 0.05 | 0.05 | 0.25 | 0.38 |
WsF_idx_match | 0.05 | 0.05 | 0.25 | 0.38 |
loop_in_array | 0.06 | 0.06 | 0.35 | 0.43 | - this is better for 2+ lookups
range_find | 0.10 | 0.12 | 0.80 | 0.95 |
match_in_array | 0.11 | 0.11 | 0.65 | 0.80 |
loop_in_sheet | 0.14 | 0.16 | 1.2 | 1.39 |
array_to_dict | 0.5 | 0.65 | 61 | 87 |
sheet_to_dict | 1.5 | 1.70 | 75 | 100 |
