I tried the formula with the array, but it still did not work. The formula
that I used was =MIN(IF(MOD(COLUMN(B5:G5),3)=1,IF(B5:G5)))
Do you think this is correct?

Try this array formula (confirm with Ctrl+Shift+Enter, not just Enter):

=MIN(IF(A1:D1000,A1:D1000))

I found a formula for determining the lowest costs from several columns,
but
I cannot get it to work in my worksheet. This is nearly 1000 lines long.
I
want to search 4 columns and get the lowest cost excluding 0. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
