=LARGEST(overview!$AB5:$AL5;11)
I'm using this formula to look up a certain value in "overview" sheet, is there a way to not show the result in this cell but show as result the cell in the same column in row 3?
In the attached sheet there is a list of horse runs in time order with the latest at the bottom..col C contains the rating for each run. I need a formula to fill down col d and e. Col d is to contain the rating of its previous run and column e the rating of its second last run. for example row 21 ..I have filled in manually Autumn charms last run had a rating of 116 and its second last run was 122..filled in in cell e21. if a horse has not ran(is now shown previously..above in column e..just leave the cols d and e blank...
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've a column that contains numerical values. In my vba code, I have to select a block of cells at a time and get the row which has the maximum value.
One lame approach I am doing is wasting another column that extracts the max from the block of cells using Excel's Max function, and then doing a iterative search in the numerical column to get the cell tht contains the max value, and from it get the row number
Is there a better way such tht i can avoid the looping?
so in a nutshell, i want to get the row number from a range of cells that contains the maximum value
I tried a few searches for what I need but I think my wording might be off or there isn't anything on it yet. So the formula I'm looking for is: I have a single colum of say 700 rows with random values in each. I would like to average rows 1 to 15 then 2 to 16 then 3 to 17.... all the way through to 686 to 700. Now out of all that I need only the highest 15 period average value returned. Seemed simple until I tried to do it. Whats that saying, the idea is 1% of the invention..
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've a two column dataset with one column for person name and one column for sales.
I'm trying return the nth largest value where the person name equals the value in a referenced cell.
My dataset may grow or shrink over time so I'm trying to avoid array formula.
Basically I'm looking for something like the below that actually works.
how I can return the largest letter from an array of letters? e.g. if the array is "A,B,C,D,H,K,L,O,P", the value returned would be P. Kind of like a MAX function, but for letters instead of numbers.

Colum 1 is the date of the flight
Colum 2 is the aircraft type
Each row is one flight
I tried lots of things (IF, LARGE, MAX, SOMPRODUCT,...) but nothing works.
I'm using the LOOKUP function to find the largest number and then return the name from a different column, it looks like this:
=LOOKUP(LARGE(round1!$F$2:$F$65,1),round1!$A$2:$A$65)
but all I get is hashN/A?
I'm looking for a formula to enter within a particular cell which will return the largest number that appears within a range of cells, for example the range H:133 through L:136. If it's any easier, only one number will appear within the range, though it could appear in any cell within that range.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a named range which refers to: =MATCH(LARGE($G$5:$G$68,ROW(G5)-4),G$5:G$68,0)+4. It is supposed to find the largest figure in the adjacent column, list its row in cell H5, then the second largest for cell H6 and so on until the end of the data. The data in column G is dynamic and some cells will contain "0" with certain sections of data thus why I need a formula and cannot just use sort each time.
My problem is that when I use the formula as a named range I get "#N/A" and when I evaluate the formula I will get the answer but in array brackets (e.g.{17}) before the final step turns it to "#N/A". The formula will work fine if inputted directly into the cell but as the same formula will be used over three columns and numerous rows I would much prefer to use a named range.
I am trying to use the Large function to pull out First, second and third highest values in an array. problem is with ties and zeros it returns the wrong value.
View 4 Replies View RelatedHow would I return a cell reference (address) to a cell that contains the largest number in a list?
I tried using "Address(large....) where I get the correct column, but the returned row # is the actual value in the cell (the highest # in the list).
I eventually will want to delete the highest number to leave the cell blank.
I have a table with subtotals that I need to find the largest value for the subtotal results and then return the cell contents for the corresponding row.
I have attempted to use the hlookup function, but keep getting a #ref error (probably because I am just not that familiar with the entire formula requirements).
I attempted to nest in the 'largest' function to the lookup function, but have so far been stymied....
I'm logging failed password attempts and need to find the latest time logged for a single user (when user has failed 5 times).
So the 5th attempt, I need that time
So the usual - Application.UserName in the next free cell in a range and time stamp in the next cell.
What I've tried is:
Say log range is A1:B500 and
A=Username, B=Time stamp
In column C I've nested the two together
(this has more code but not required to get this working)
In C1
Code:
=A1&" "&"live"&" "&B1
So this will bring back "Username live 23:12:12". Now, say there is 5 of these (all with different times)
How do I find the latest time for that user?
Code:
IF(COUNTIF("USERNAME LIVE"&"*")=5,[find the latest time in that list",""
Just to wind you up some more, other users name will be logged and muddled up so it's literally -
"Excel - if a user has failed 5 times then give me the time of the 5th attempt"
I've tried a mixture of COUNTIF, MAX, LARGE, TIMEVALUE(...)
I have a table showing interest levels in training courses from a group of schools, eg:
English Maths Science
School1 3 4 2
School2 7 1 0
School3 3 2 5
I want to identify the column heading for the first, second and third most popular courses. ie for School1 the most popular course is Maths, second most popular is English and so on.
I have tried using the OFFSET function, which worked if I provided the cell location of the required value. I then looked at the ADDRESS function to provide the cell location: eg For School2 find the 2nd most popular course:
=ADDRESS(ROW(A3),COLUMN(data?)+MATCH(LARGE(B3:B5,2),B3:B5,0)-1)
But I have got stuck with what I should enter for COLUMN(data?) as I do not know in which column the second largest value is.
I am sure Excel has the required functionality.
I have 3 columns. The first has names of students, the second names of their schools, and the third the student's scores. I need to add together the top 4 scores from each school and return them in a table. I have tried combining LARGE and SUMIF but to no avail. Also tried a Pivot table but I cannot get just the top four scores to add.

I'm working with box quantities and would like to get a formula that would take the box quantity and return the largest value based on some parameters. Here are my parameters:
Box Quantity
- 375 pieces
Break down options
2 - 187.5 pieces
3 - 125 pieces
4 - 93.75 pieces
5 - 75 pieces
Obviously options 2 and 4 are no good as I can only work with even break downs. This leaves me with either 3 or 4 and because I want the largest, I would choose number 3. What I need is help on a formula that will take the value of the box quantity and return the largest whole number. I think for the time being I would like to leave the break down between 2 and 5 as well.
If TRUE or omitted, an exact or approximate match is returned. If an exact match is not found, the next largest value that is less than lookup_value is returned. But this is not correct as the value I am seeking falls with a range of Min/Max Values therefore the return should be the Next Largest Value
I have values I would like to lookup against a table Min Max values
Col A Min Value 700,000
Col B Max Value 799,999.99
The value being sought is 745,000
I would like the return to be 799,999.99
But currently returning 700,000
Current formula is
=VLOOKUP(G2,tblMaxValues,2,TRUE)
Where G2 is 745,000
tblMaxValues is a list of values for comparison
,2, is the column to be returned
I need a formula that would return the sum of the largest 3 numerical values out of a range of values, i.e. ignoring the lowest values in the range.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to write a macro in order to find the largest value in a column in one worksheet, and copy and paste that value into a different workbook. I have found a code similar to what I am looking for and tweaked it, but it needs a few more adjustments. The code below opens the file I want it to, and pastes data into the correct workbook and worksheet, but I would like it to be able to paste in the next empty cell in Row 3, instead of just in the cell "C3". Also i would like for the program to find the largest numeric value in column C, instead of using an if last row statement, as this current program does not always give me the output I am looking for.

writing a formula to sum the six largest numbers from a row of numbers. I have used the array formula "=SUM(LARGE(E2:M2,{1,2,3,4,5,6}))" and it works for rows that have six or more numbers; however, not all of my rows always have six or more numbers. Rows that have less than six result in "#NUM!".
