Hey guys! At work, I've got an issue with Large functions here that I could really use help on. I'll try to explain as best as I can.
So my data isn't exactly this, but it follows the same basic patterns:
Column A Column B
Steve 5
Bob 8
Dan 5
Maria 3
What I'm doing is using a Lookup function that finds the largest value, and then reports the associated name. For instance, for the largest value, it would find the number eight and report the name Bob. I have this part down. My problem is when I use the second and third largest values, using the formulas (LARGE(B2:B5,2)) and (LARGE(B2:B5,3)). Whenever I do this, it reports the name Steve for both. Since 5 is both the second and third largest values, it just takes Steve's name for both since he comes first. If I skip and enter (LARGE(B2:B5,4)), it just outputs Maria's name. I need a way to output Dan's name for the third largest value; perhaps by somehow excluding Steve's name from the formula.
Any help is massively appreciated.
