I have a sheet which has 4 coloums
A B C D
Don 115
Don 50
Don 125
Mary 85
Mary 15
John 10
Phil 25
Phil 35

Using the formula I want to pull up the lowest value next to names value in
Coloum "C" & "D"

Basically it should pull up the lowest value from coloum B refrencing to
coloum A
===============it should look like this ======
C D
Don 50

Thanks for the help in advance

Not sure why you want to repeat the names in column C...

Enter this formula in C1:

=A1

Enter this array formula** in D1:

=MIN(IF(A$1:A$8=A1,B$1:B$8))

** array formulas need to be entered using the key combination of
CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER)

Select both C1 and D1 then copy down as needed.
