Backwards LookUp
This will be easier to explain with an example:
A B C D 1 1 2 3 2 1 3.7 5.4 5.4 3 2 6.5 10.8 10.8 4 3 13.1 16.2 23.4 The object of the formula that I am trying to write is to return the corresponding value in A2:A4 that matches the combination of B1:D1 and B2:D4. So for example if the number in B1:D1 that I know is 2 and the number in B2:D4 that I know is 16.2 then I want 3 (the value in A4) returned as the answer. To add one more twist to this. If the number I know in B1:D1 is 3 but the number I know in the B2:D4 is 7, I want the formula to look for the next larger number that is in the table to match with, so in this example the correct answer would be 2 (A3). Any ideas? Thank you, Eli |
