Lookup in Excel
Posted on 2011-03-11
I'm trying to create a lookup to find the optimal size to use in the attached file. In column A I have my finish sizes. In column H I have the starting sizes. What I need to do is find the next largest size from Column H that is greater than .0050 from the finish size in column A and put that size in column B. How can I do this?

Can you sort H2:H17, they are mostly sorted I think but H17 is out of order. If you sort that range then you can use this formula in B2 copied down
=IFERROR(IF(A2+0.00499<H$2
...or a shorter array formula to do the same
=IFERROR(SMALL(IF(H$2:H$17
confirmed with CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER
