Default Getting the top five incidents

It is actually a little more complicated than I said.

There are other columns in the table, but I didnt want it to seem more
complicated. What I need is to pick up records with variables in two other
columns that equal certain things.

For example...

Column
A: Incident No
B: Date
C: Description
D: Minutes 1
E: Minutes 2
F: Function (eg Engineering)
G: Area

I need to find the top 5 incidents in terms of minutes 1, where Function is
x, and Area is y...

There's a pickle for ya lol...

Thanks Leo I tried yours but was a bit confused...any chance of being a
bit
clearer? Would be hugely appreciated - I did manage to write the formula
so
it brought up unique values only (is that what it's meant to do?)


I got the impression, that you had duplicates in "Minute 1" and that you
didn't
want them in your list, so yes my formula brings up unique values only.
How do you enter the minutes in "Minute 1"? As numbers 3, 6, 12, 7, 6 etc or
as time 0:3, 0:6 etc.
If you enter them as time, then select F2:F6 and give it the user-
defined format [mm] to get a list of the top 5 minutes.
