    How do I rank cells from high to low?

    So I have a spreadsheet that has values in B15, E15, H15, K15, N15, Q15, T15 and W15. The headings of these values are in a merged cell of B5 & C5 via text. So B5&C5 say "Springfield" for example and the value in their B15 cell is $79,000. Each value cell has a text heading.

    How do I rank these cells from highest to lowest in a separate area of my spreadsheet that displays both the text and the value?

    So it ranks and says on the side of the graph:

    1. Albany 107,900
    2. Glastonbury 94,975
    3. Middlebury 91,098
    4. Manchester 88,203
    5. Springfield 79,877
    6. Virginia Beach 64,418
    7. Southbury 60,108
    8. Brookfield 48,916

    Thank you in advance.

    Re: Rank?

    I changed the title, is this approved and posted yet? I don't really know what else to call it to add anything more than I already did, hence why I am here looking for help....

    Thank You for changing the title.
    As the total sales values are likely to be unique try the following:
    To display the amounts: =AGGREGATE(14,6,B$15:V$15/(B$5:V$5<>""),ROWS(A$1:A1))
    To display the store names: =INDEX(B$5:V$5,MATCH(AB5,B$15:V$15,0))
    Note that the amounts are in AB5 and down and the names are in AA5 and down.
    If you need to see how this would work with your file please upload the spreadsheet from which the screen shot was taken by clicking on the GO ADVANCED button below the Quick Reply window and then scrolling down to Manage Attachments to open the upload window.
    Let us know if you have any questions.
