    Trying to match the number 1, which is a rank, to the name in the same row but not same co

    I am trying to match a winner of a contest which would be ranked number 1. The ranks can change by changing some of the data so I want the name of the number one ranked person would change as well.

    Data Rank
    Don $435 2
    Mike $400 3
    rich $300 4
    bill $500 1


    So I want the name Bill to populate in a cell. But if the dollar amount changes and his rank changes then I need the name of that number 1 rank

    There are about 6 columns in between the name and the end rank

    Attach a sample workbook. Make sure there is just enough data to make it clear what is needed. Include a BEFORE sheet and an AFTER sheet in the workbook if needed to show the process you're trying to complete or automate. Make sure your desired results are demonstrated, mock them up manually if needed. Remember to desensitize the data.

    Click on GO ADVANCED and use the paperclip icon to open the upload window.
