Lookup Query in Excel
Hi,
I am trying to return the column heading name for a formulated set of results. How do I do this? I have tried HLOOKUP but this only works when the column heading is pasted directly below the cells I am looking up. I have many rows and this results in an error message when I try to use it My dataset contains the following: "Product name" in the left most column, with the column headings going across the page for each sales competitor. I have used a MIN function to extract the lowest competitor price (to exclude Zero for other products). This is returned in the right most column. Using this formulated result (in the lowest price column, I now need to derive who the competitor is for that particular returned value (e.g. X,Y or Z. Can anyone help with this? It would be greatly appreciated Product name comp X comp Y comp Z Lowest price Lowest Comp abcde 100.0 101.00 102.00 100 Regards Lee |

If your titles are in row 1 and your first =MIN() is in E2 then put this in F2: =INDEX(1:1,MATCH(E2,A2:D2,0)) Col -- colofnature ------------------------------------------------------------------------ colofnature's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=34356 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=546450 |
