    [EDIT] Creating a Bid Sheet need to pick lowest Bidder ** NEED ADD. HELP***

    Quick example:

    I have
    PHP Code: 

               
    #1                             #2                            #3
    quanity  unit price  total        quanity  unit price  total       quanity  unit price  total
    2           10            20           3           10           30            5          10         50
    5           10            50           4           10           40            2          10         20 
    6           10            60           7           10           70            1          10         10

              subtotal      130                   subtotal      140                 subtotal        80 
    I would like to copy the unit price (Entire Column) from the lowest bider (Subtotal) to another sheet ... I have done this with if statements before but I'm limited to 7 nested if's... is there another way to do this sometimes I have more ten 7 bidders.

    Thanx once more...

    =small(c7:c17,1)

    where c7:c17 is your array and 1 is the nth smallest
    if you enter 4 instead of 1 you get the fourth smallest number in your list

    Not sure you if understood what I wanted to do so I will explain it a bit more..

    Lets say I have 3 bidders as in the example, I need to look at the subtotal for the smallest amount and then take the entire column in the unit prive from the lowest amount to another sheet.

    I used you small formula and it worked to display the smallest subtotal but how do I incorpate it to copy a entire column corresponding to the loewst subtotal ?

    Ok I got someting to work using sumproduct

    =SUMPRODUCT((J14:AQ14=D14)*(I7:AP7)

    but when I drag it down to recreate the next cells it get

    =SUMPRODUCT((J15:AQ15=D15)*(I8:AP8)

    is there a way to get it to drag but look like this ?

    =SUMPRODUCT((J14:AQ14=D14)*(I8:AP8))

    Yes, this can be corrected with minor changes.
    Use $'s.
    They lock cell addresses.

    =SUMPRODUCT(($J$14:$AQ$14=$D$14)*(I7:AP7)
