Using INDIRECT within MINIFS and MAXIFS
I use this formula to find a minimum value in a column of numbers: =MAXIFS(BG7:BG10000;BG7:BG10000;"<1.04") giving the correct answer in this case 1.03822
So works fine - but I would like to be able to change the "<1.04" criteria using an external cell.....
I have tried this: =MINIFS(BG7:BG10000;BG7:BG10000;INDIRECT("">"&A2&""")) but I just get a clean 0 as answer (A2 cell contains the 1.04 value).
Could you pls advice?
Just this:
=MAXIFS(BG7:BG10000;BG7:BG10000;"<"&$A$2)
or this (whichever you really mean):
=MAXIFS(BG7:BG10000;BG7:BG10000;">"&$A$2)

Thank you very much AliGW - works perfectly!
EXCEL syntax is at times not super logical. Hope I acted correctly by following your first advice - namely to start a new thread on my issue.
Cheers,
