    How do I: Extract column headers based on lowest number in sequence

    I'd like for Excel to return the colomn "name" based on the lowest value in
    the sequence. For example-
    Columns are A, B, C, D, E, F, G
    Column names are in row 1
    Rows 2-415 will have a series of numbers
    Column H will contain the results for each individual row

    I know I can use =SMALL(A3:G3,1) to get me the lowest value. The problem I
    am having is how do I them translate that into the name of the column.

    Thanks
    -Adam

    =INDEX(A1:G1,1,MATCH(MIN(A3:G3),A3:G3,0))
