I need to find out the highest, second highest and third highest from the

G1: =INDEX($A$1:$E$1,MATCH(H1,$B$1:$F$1,0))
H1: = LARGE($A$1:$F$1,1)
I1: =INDEX($A$1:$E$1,MATCH(J1,$B$1:$F$1,0))
J1: = LARGE($A$1:$F$1,2)
K1: =INDEX($A$1:$E$1,MATCH(L1,$B$1:$F$1,0))
L1: = LARGE($A$1:$F$1,3)

Hi Bob,

Seems this is working. I am still applying this formula into a large
worksheet.

But before that I thought I should not miss say Thank you.

Hi Bob,

Unfortunately LARGE does not work if there are identical values. In the
third row you get STAPLES three times...

I suggest to enter into G1:O1
=RANK($B1,$B1:$F1) =RANK($D1,$B1:$F1)+COUNTIF($B1,$D1) =RANK($F1,$B1:$F1)+COUNTIF($B1:$D1,$F1) =INDEX($A1:$F1,MATCH(1,$G1:$I1,)*2-1) =INDEX($A1:$F1,MATCH(1,$G1:$I1,)*2) =INDEX($A1:$F1,MATCH(2,$G1:$I1,)*2-1) =INDEX($A1:$F1,MATCH(2,$G1:$I1,)*2) =INDEX($A1:$F1,MATCH(3,$G1:$I1,)*2-1) =INDEX($A1:$F1,MATCH(3,$G1:$I1,)*2)

then copy down as far as required.

Regards,
Bernd
