    Index with multiple instance

    I want to find top 2 performer in cell A17 & A17 in my attached sheet. Column B2:B13 changes everyday, so the name of performer changes accordingly. But today my top 2 performers achieved same but my formula is giving the same name. Is there anyway to find out the other name i.e Ahmmed Shawkat Hossain here instead of Khan Md. Abdul alim again?

    Try this......

    In B16, Place the following Array Formula and drag down....As it is an Array Formula, so it needs to be confirmed with Ctrl+Shift+Enter

    Then in C16, place the below formula and drag down...

    Re: Index with multiple instance

    Try this non-array approach.

    Add a helper column (I used C) and copy this down...
    =B2+(COUNTIF($B$2:B2,B2)/1000)

    Then to pull the %, use this...
    =INDEX($B$2:$B$13,MATCH(LARGE($C$2:$C$13,ROW(A1)),$C$2:$C$13,0))
    adjust for the name
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
