Also...
Top...
=INDEX(A1:A150,MATCH("~*",B1:B150,0))
Bottom...
=INDEX(A1:A150,MATCH("~*",B1:B150))
OR
=LOOKUP(2,1/(B1:B150="*"),A1:A150)
Hope this helps!

In each cell of column B (rows 3 to 150), there is either nothing (Null) or
an asterisk. All the asterisked cells will be in consecutive rows - but
where they start and finish is variable depending on other calculations in
the worksheet.
I want to be able to find the top and bottom row that has an asterisk in it
and return the corresponding cell values in column A.
eg
a
b
c *
d *
e *
f *
g
h
I'd be looking for two formulae - one to identify 'c' as the top value and
'f' as the bottom value.
Can SKS help.
Many thanks in advance.
