    Lookup the nth highest number in a row

    Hi

    Newbie question

    If I have a row (or column for that matter) with 10 numbers in it and I want to extract the 4th highest for example to another cell, what function can I use to do this.?

    Thanks in advance

    Lookup the nth highest number

    Try the LARGE function.

    example:
    This formula returns the 3rd largest value in A1:A10
