Returning column header as result
I have a mileage table exported out of Map Point and into Excel. I have a
formula to return the minimum mileage but I also need to return the city in the column next to the formula. I'd also like to find the next closest city. Any help will be appreciated. Min Formula - =MIN(AI2:CY2) Columns look like: Closest Min Dist Amusement Chicago Cincinnati Cleveland Springfield 2 Field Museum 2 200 400 150 xx Six Flags, Gurney xx xxx xxx xxx xxx Six Flags, St. Louis xx xxx xxx xxx |

Try:
=INDEX($AI$1:$CY$1,1,MATCH(MIN($AI2:$CY2),$AI2:$CY 2,0)) You can substitute MIN($AI2:$CY2) with cell which contains this value HTH "Patricia" wrote: I have a mileage table exported out of Map Point and into Excel.

Thanks, I had tried the index but had problems with the matching and min in
my formula. Do you know how to get the next minimum number?

You could use the SMALL function:
=SMALL(AI2:CY2,2) will give 2nd smallest number =SMALL(AI2:CY2,1) will give smallest number (instead of MIN) HTH "Patricia" wrote: Thanks, I had tried the index but had problems with the matching and min in my formula.

Toppers,
Thank you so very much. This is exactly what I needed to not only bring a summary of the two closest items but also what those items are!.
