    HELP: Find largest value in a column and return adjacent cell value!

    Hello all,

    Excel noob here.

    I want to insert the adjacent text-in-a-cell of the largest value of a column. I know that it's a general problem and there's a number of solutions in the web addressing it. Although I've followed up on them specifically, my answer still returns #N/A.

    For better clarification, I've attached the sample worksheet here.

    Any help would be great, thanks in advance!
