Default Select a cell based on an other cell's value

Put this in C6:

=INDEX(A2:A4,MATCH(B6,B2:B4,0))

and this in C7:

=INDEX(A2:A4,MATCH(B7,B2:B4,0))

If you have two maximum values or two minimum values, the MATCH
function will find the first.

Hope this helps.

Hi!

I've got an excel-table. It looks something like this.

Table1
(A1)Month (B1)SMS
January 106
February 220
Mars 50

(A6)Max: =MAX(B2;B4)
(A7)Min: =MIN(B2;B4)

Now I want to find out what month B6 and B7 is and placing them in C6 &
C7.

In SQL I would have done something like

SELECT `month` FROM table1 WHERE SMS = B6

How do I do this?!

Many thanks, wally_91
