The only way to be sure is to try it!

So what it seems, is that I can't really escape my speed problem. Whatever
I'll do, the alternative would not have any significant speed increase.

Thanks for your input.

You can avoid the array formula if we use some "helper" cells

Say in R99 we enter:

=IF(R2=0,"",R2) and copy across. Then we can simply use:

=MIN(R99:AA99)

Hello:

I have a formula to calculate the Min value of a range that has
includes
zero values, which the min formula ignors the zero valus. However, it
is an
array function which slows down my spreadsheet, since I have this array
formula on a long list. Is there a way to calculate the min of a range
which
has also some zero values without an array function?

The formula I use now is as follows:

={MIN(IF(R2:AA20,R2:AA2))}

Thanks.
