I have done some research on this, and found a solution using Array Formulae
http://www.get-digital-help.com/2009...array-formula/ (section titled Two columns sorting by the second column).
This is what I want, but the formula are very complex. I have tried modifying them for a different input range without much success. What I have is a table with a column of text and a column of numbers. I what to return the text and numbers for the top 10 items in order.
eg
Here are my 2 columns of data
Cat 5
Dog 3
Kitten -2
Snake 9
Cow 12
horse 11
bird 3.2
monkey 3.1
fish -20
whale 0
shark 22.1
parrot 0.51
Coke 111
So I want a formula that will return the following result into a new table 2 x 10 in the sheet while keeping the original table in place.
Coke 111
shark 22.1
Cow 12
horse 11
Snake 9
Cat 5
bird 3.2
monkey 3.1
Dog 3
parrot 0.51
Any help would be appreciated. I am OK with an Array formula as long as I can adjust it to different size source range.
