What is the Syntax of the QUERY Function Formula?

data is the range from which to extract data.
query is the command, constructed using the Google Visualization API Query Language, to extract data.
headers is optional, and specifies the number of header rows.
How to Extract Data using QUERY?
Let's assume you want to extract the amount credited as dividend from your bank statement. Let's further assume that the information in the Description column of the statement, for the dividend credit, starts with ACH/.
The QUERY function formula for the above task is:
=QUERY(E3:G7,"select G where E matches '.*ACH/.*'")
Here E3:G7 is the value for the data argument and is the address of the range with data.
"select G where E matches '.*ACH/.*'" is the value for the query argument.
The command specifies to select the value in the cell in the G column corresponding to the cell in the E column, if the data in that cell has the text ACH/. The characters . and * preceding and following the text ACH/ specify that any text can precede or follow ACH/.
IMPORTANT: While specifying the string to be matched, ensure that is fully unique to the data you want to extract. Otherwise, unrelated data would also be extracted.
