Hello Norie,<br><br>Thank you so much. Your solution is so much more elegant than mine. :)&nbsp;

Thanks again, Norie.<br><br>I have a follow-up question if you're available.<br><br>I want to also want to automatically provide the current week stats. Using your formula, I can manually do this with:<br>=QUERY(A20:J170, "SELECT A, (I+J) ORDER BY (I+J) desc LIMIt 5")<br>Where (I+J) is update each week. But I am wondering if this can be automatically updated so that each week the query is reading the current week's columns?<br><br>If you are able to assist, I have created a new EE question so that you can get proper credit.<br><a href="https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/29218219/Calculating-top-5-weekly-stats-automatically.html#questionAdd" rel="ugc">https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/29218219/Calculating-top-5-weekly-stats-automatically.html#questionAdd</a>

I might be tired or clueless but I can't figure out why my formula is failing in not finding a value match.
I have 3 columns:
(A) is the position (1 - 5)
(B) lists the name of one of the top 5
Formula:
=ArrayFormula(INDEX(A$26:A$175,MATCH(C2,(Round($D$26:$D$175)+ROW($D$26:$D$175)/10000),0)))
(C) is the top 5 values picked from the data. The top five is calculated with the formula:
=TRUNC(ArrayFormula((LARGE((Round($D$26:$D$175,2)+ROW($D$26:$D$175)/10000),A2))),2)
 
The data is in the lower rows of A21:A and D21:D
I'm using Google Sheets, but it shouldn't greatly differ from an Excel solution. I think "ArrayFormula" might be the only difference. 
Here is the test sheet (feel free to edit it):

Thank you so much for your help.

Spreadsheet formula: Dynamic sorting of top 5 value in an array

A spreadsheet is an interactive computer application program for organization, analysis and storage of data in tabular form. Spreadsheets developed as computerized simulations of paper accounting worksheets. The program operates on data represented as cells of an array, organized in rows and columns. Each cell of the array may contain either numeric or text data, or the results of formulas that automatically calculate and display a value based on the contents of other cells.
