Default Minimum value in a range > 0

I have a range of cells where I would like to find the minimum value greater
than 0.

For example:

18
12
0
16
19

I need a formula to look at the entire range and result in the lowest value,
in this case 12.

Thanks for the help.

Hi Barbara

assuming your range is in A1:A5 then the following array formula should give
you what you're looking for - (as this is an array formula you will need to
enter it using ctrl & shift & enter instead of just enter)

=MIN(IF($A$1:$A$50,$A$1:$A$5))

Cheers

non array enter with enter only
=SMALL(C1:C10,COUNTIF(C1:C10,0)+1)

array - enter with control+shift+enter
=MIN(IF(C1:C100,C1:C10))

Hi Barbara

You can use this array formula
=MIN(IF(A1:A100,A1:A10))
