Default Match 3 Criteria and Return Lowest Numeric Value

Hi All,

I would like a Formula to match 3 criteria in the following order:

1. Numeric Reference (NOT Unique)
2. Numeric Values ( NOT Unique) - lowest value
3. Numeric Label (Unique)

The Numeric Reference that I'm looking for will vary (Input Cell).

Search /Match ALL specified (duplicate) References.
From the specified References Return the Numeric Label that has the "LOWEST"
Numeric Value .

Data Layout is 3 Rows:
1st Row E4:AC4 Numeric Values (NOT Unique)
2nd Row E5:AC5 Numeric Labels (Unique)
3rd Row E6:AC6 Numeric References (NOT Unique)

Sample Data:
E4:AC4 Numeric Values (NOT Unique) 145 127 120 160 130 170 160 160
E5:AC5 Numeric Labels (Unique) 20 21 22 23 24 25 26
27
E6:AC6 Numeric Reference 8 0 8 2
0 10 8 30

Scenario:
Looking for Numeric Reference 8, the relevant Numeric Labels are 20, 22 and
26. Their respective Numeric Values are 145, 120 and 160. The Numeric Label
with the lowest value of 120 is 22.

Expected Result:
Numeric Label 22

Thanks
Sam
