    Finding the second lowest value

    I have this formula-

    =IF(C2="","",MINIFS($F$2:$F$10000,$O$2:$O$10000,O2))

    This works fine and gives me the lowest value from range F2:F10

    How could I change this formula so that it returns the second lowest value from the same range?

    Thanks

    Try Array formula

    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =IF(C2="","",SMALL(IF($O$2:$O$10000=O2,$F$2:$F$10000),2))

    Thanks for your reply.

    I have attached a book as it didn't work for me.

    The original formula is in R2, I then wanted to drag the cell down to give the results down column R.

    Can you take a look wk9128?

    @parbynat

    Array formulas are not entered in the same way as 'standard' formulas. Instead of pressing just ENTER, you first hold down CTRL and SHIFT, and only then press ENTER. If you've done it correctly, you'll notice Excel puts curly brackets {} around the formula

    Re: Finding the second lowest value

    Non Array formula
    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =IF(C2="","",AGGREGATE(15,6,$F$2:$F$10000/($O$2:$O$10000=O2),2))
