Hi Everyone,

I have Numbers 1 to 49 in Cells "M6:M54".
I have Various Values in Cells "N6:S54".
What I would like to do for Example is in Cells "N56", "N57" & "N58" is
to Find the "3" Largest Values ( from Cells "N6:N54" ) and Return which
Numbers from 1 to 49 they Represent Please.
I have Tried the Formulas ...
=VLOOKUP(LARGE(N$6:N$54,1),$M6:$S54,0)
=VLOOKUP(LARGE(N$6:N$54,2),$M6:$S54,0)
=VLOOKUP(LARGE(N$6:N$54,3),$M6:$S54,0)
.... But they give me a #Value! Error.

Brilliant!.
Thanks Tom.

Just One Point.
If Two Numbers have an Identical Value, it gives Only One Number TWICE.
1 1 12 [20] 31 43 49
2 2 14 [20] 34 38 47
3 4 9 22 27 40 48
4 3 8 [19] 30 41 46
5 5 10 [19] 28 34 45
6 7 7 23 33 34 44
I Used the Top Six LARGE for EACH.

Thanks in Advance.
All the Best.
Paul

Tom,

Will Another Approach have to be Used to Achieve this Please.

Thanks in Advance.
All the Best.

I replied to this a while ago, but it must have gone astray:

will let you adapt this to actuall locations. the formula looks in column
B B11:B20 and picks out the largest number and returns the corresponding
number in A11:A20. The Row(A1) part returns the order argument to the large
function, so when you drag fill it down the column it then returns 2, 3, etc
so you get the highest n numbers.

=INDEX($A$11:$A$20,MATCH(LARGE($B$11:$B$20+ROW($B$ 11:$B$20)/100000,ROW(A1)),
$B$11:$B$20+ROW($B$11:$B$20)/100000,0),1)

This is an array formula an should be entered with Ctrl+shift+Enter rather
than just enter.

Hi Tom,

Thats Done it.

Thanks VERY Much.

The final argument of Vlookup is a number from 1 to the number of coulmens in
the range being looked up. You have a 0 which will return a #Value.

No, not exactly correct. Vlookup takes 4 arguments (the last is optional).
The 3rd argument does what you say. The fourth identifies whether an exact
match is desired.

Granted, Paul was only using 3 - so within that context . . . (but you did
say Final).
