    Match Function

    Hi, My Match Function is not working.. Can anyone see what I am doing wrong.

    I need it to return the next Highest value so I am using the Match type of "-1" but I am getting a "#N/A" Error.. I should be getting a returned value of "10"

    Re: Match Function

    Your array should be sorted in descending order, when using the -1 match type.

    With those microscopic characters, I surely can't. Attaching a sheet instead of a picture makes it easier to work with.

    Have resorted by descending order and have attached the sheet.

    You sorted the wrong thing... The bits in green are what you should have changed.
