    Finding The Nth Greatest Value Meeting Criteria

    Problem:

    Listed in Range A2:C6 are players (column C) and their matching teams and scores (columns D:E).
    How could we create a formula that will retrieve the second highest score in column C matching each team in column E?

    Solution:

    Using the LARGE function in an array formula, as follows:
    {=LARGE(($B$2:$B$6=E2)*($C$2:$C$6),2)}

    (To create Array formula: select the cell after typing the formula,press F2 and then press Ctrl+Shift+Enter)

    Function names in spanish

    I am having trouble finding the LARGE() function in my SPANISH version of Excel. Is there a dictionary somewhere or a way to find out the equivalent names in Spanish?

    In Access you can type the English function and the application understand and translate it, but the same functionality was not included in Excel.

    One option may be to create a workbook with the language set to English version with a LARGE formula, and then open it with the language set to Spanish version.

    No idea if it will work, but seems like it might!

    HTH,

    I don't see what you mean. That data is already sorted, so there is nothing to do?

    In general, to sort, you can look at the RANK function.

    HTH,

    To help us help you, try to do the following:

    1) Be precise about what you want to do, and provide a sample of your data / inputs - exactly as they are.

    2) State the formula(e) / code that you have tried. People are happy to help , but if you haven't even given it a go, you are less likely to get help, or the help you get will be very basic.

    3) State the results you are getting from your formula(e) / code already.

    4) State the outputs that you *want* to be getting.
