hello, i would like to know if i can preserve excel cell format when using any lookup formula, i have a chart and want to view sales by quantity/value or percentage based on slicer selection.

the method that i’m using currently allows me to view any of the above with 1 type of format not based on the original cell format
 

Excel Facts

Did you know Excel offers Filter by Selection?
Add the AutoFilter icon to the Quick Access Toolbar. Select a cell containing Apple, click AutoFilter, and you will get all rows with Apple
I dont completely understand.

VLOOKUP / HLOOKUP / LOOKUP retrieve values. They do not retrieve formats.

Maybe supply some examples.
