How to calculate non-zero minimum value?
If the values are in A1:A10 then you can use an array formula which must be
entered with Ctrl+Shift+Enter, not just Enter =MIN(IF(A1:A10<0,A1:A10)) Tyro "yhoy" wrote in message ... I have a list of data. want to get the lowest non-zero value. How to set up the formula? Thanks! |

But I don't think that formula works correctly if there are negative
numbers? -- David Biddulph "RagDyer" wrote in message ...

You're absolutely right.
However, as I mentioned in a thread yesterday concerning averaging without zeroes, the transition from positive to negative predisposes the presence of zeroes. Therefore, one can assume ... no 0's ... no negatives. Though your point is well taken, since we never actually know how or where our suggestions will be used. -- Regards, RD ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Please keep all correspondence within the Group, so all may benefit ! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "David Biddulph" <groups [at] biddulph.org.uk wrote in message ...
