HOW DO I GET TEXT TO COME UP BESIDE FORMULA
I have a list of names and an array of numbers to their names. I have sumed
the arrays of each name and placed them in accending order using LARGE() function. I need the names to come up in the box beside the accending LARGE function. So I can see who came 1st, 2nd, 3rd....etc |

Please specify the ranges of cells that contain your NAMES, and which contain
your NUMBERS............. Vaya con Dios, Chuck, CABGx3 "Ashley" wrote: I have a list of names and an array of numbers to their names.

HOW DO I GET TEXT TO COME UP BESIDE FORMULA
A2:A150 are NAMES, B2;E150 contain values, F2:F150 are the sum of the vaues
for each name. On another worksheet I used a LARGE function to sort the sum into decending order, but I can't get the names to enter in the next cell?

HOW DO I GET TEXT TO COME UP BESIDE FORMULA
I would assume there is a possibility of ties.
Say you list is on Sheet1, A2 to F150. Say your sorting formula is: =LARGE(Sheet1!$F$2:$F$150,ROWS($1:1)) And is on Sheet2, in A1 to A149. Try this *array* formula on Sheet2, in B1, =INDEX(Sheet1!$A$2:$A$150,LARGE(IF(Sheet1!$F$2:$F$ 150=A1,ROW($1:$149)),COUNT IF(A1:$A$149,A1))) -- Array formulas are entered using CSE, <Ctrl <Shift <Enter, instead of the regular <Enter, which will *automatically* enclose the formula in curly brackets, which *cannot* be done manually. Then copy down to B149. -- HTH, RD ============================================== Please keep all correspondence within the Group, so all may benefit! ============================================== "Ashley" wrote in message ...

There would be ties, the LARGE function is the same. But the Index function
is resulting in #VALUE. Not working yet, I'm proberly missing something simple "RagDyer" wrote: I would assume there is a possibility of ties. Say you list is on Sheet1, A2 to F150.

I'd bet dollars to doughnuts that you *didn't* enter the array formula using
CSE ! Once AGAIN: -- Array formulas are entered using CSE, <Ctrl <Shift <Enter, instead of the regular <Enter, which will *automatically* enclose the formula in curly brackets, which *cannot* be done manually. Which means ... Click in B1 where you're getting a #VALUE! error. Click in the formula bar to enter the edit mode. Hold down <Ctrl and <Shift, and then hit <Enter. You should now have an accurate return. NOW, copy this *array entered formula* down to B149. -- HTH, RD ================================================== === Please keep all correspondence within the Group, so all may benefit! ================================================== === "Ashley" wrote in message ...
