    Narrow and rank values, then list corresponding data

    Hi all!

    I don`t know if my challenge is resolvable in Excel 2010 the way I want it to, but If anyone can do it, it`s got to be you guy`s

    I have a workbook with 2 sheets. Sheet 1 is where I would like to list top ten opportunities from high to low (Col M in sheet 2, not ranked) based on user data entry date (between >= and <) and user data entry any Salesperson_Name or Department_Name (Col E, F, H, I in sheet 2). These are all unique names, no Salesperson_Name or Department_Name in any Department will appear in more than one column. In addition I would like the formula to only list opportunities with a specific status (Col L in sheet 2). This variable is not data entry but needs to be written in the formula. There are a total of 8 statuses. Let`s use Status_8.

    I will use Microsoft Data and Time Picker Control 6.0 (SP4) as user data entry date. Furthermore I plan to let the user choose Salesperson_Name or Department_Name from a drop-down, but is this the only way? What I really would like is a dynamic text entry field which suggests and narrows possibilities as the user enters data. Can this be done without VBA?

    I`ve attached a workbook with dummy data that I hope illustrates what I`m looking for.

    I greatly appreciate any suggestions.

    Thanks for a well-documented and functional solution to my challenge. I`ve put it into action in a database with >5000 rows, and it works perfect. So, thank you once again

    Is this solvable in Excel:
    Furthermore I plan to let the user choose Salesperson_Name or Department_Name from a drop-down, but is this the only way? What I really would like is a dynamic text entry field which suggests and narrows possible choices as the user enters data.
