If you need to allow for two products of the same weight and type, try this:

ROW(Data!$C$2:$C$10),),B$1),INDEX(Data!$C$2:$C$10+

Hi, this does not have to be array-entered, if that's what you mean.

=IFERROR(INDEX(Data!$A$1:$A$5,MATCH(LARGE(INDEX(
(Data!$B$2:$B$5=$A2)*Data!$C$2:$C$5,),B$1),Data!$C $1:$C$5,0)),"")

BTW, this (and your original) would fail if you had two products of the
same weight and type.

Can someone show me how to accomplish the following by using the LARGE
function "WITHOUT" using an array ?

I'm trying to rank each product (most, second most, etc.) by weight.

* Data worksheet

* * A B C
* 1 Product Type Pounds
* 2 Orange Fruit 600
* 3 Tomato Vegetable 500
* 4 Apple Fruit 700
* 5 Potato Vegetable 1,000

Using the LARGE function, the goal is to get the following result on
another worksheet:

* Order worksheet

* * A B C
* 1 Product 1 2
* 2 Fruit Apple Orange
* 3 Vegetable Potato Tomato

On the Order worksheet, the following formula is the one I'm using
with an array:

* {=IFERROR(INDEX(Data!$A$1:$C$5,MATCH(LARGE(IF(Data !$B$1:$B$5=
$A2,Data!$C$1:$C$5,""),B$1),Data!$C$1:$C$5,0),1)," ")}

Does anyone know how to get the same result without using an array -
even if it uses another function ?- Hide quoted text -

Steve,

Is there a way to use the second formula when sorting with a mix of
positive and negative numbers ?
