Default Highest number + company

Hi,

You didn't tell us where the company names are so I assumed column K. Put
this in a cell and it will find the largest number in your range and return
to Co. Drag down for No2 and No3

=VLOOKUP(LARGE($J$14:$J$236,ROW(A1)),$J$14:$K$236, 2,FALSE)

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.

Hi,
I have created a spreadsheet in which companies submiting a tender will be
scored.

In order to make life easier for the committee reviewing the bids I would
like to do the following:

Display the top 3 scoring bids below:
Using: =MAX(J14:J236) I can get the highest ranking score - but not the
company
and I can't show the other top two bids.

It'll be from a range of about 200 companies?

Can anyone help?

Much appreciated in advance.
thank you.
