I've following data set and I've used Index- Large function
=LARGE(INDEX(($A$2:$A$99)*($B$2:$B$99={"x","y"}), , ), ROW(1:1))
... to find out Top 25 of x and y combined. How would I pull the Column that has listed fruits? I can't use Large since it's for Numbers only. I've 20 more columns that have text only. Any thoughts?
apple 100 x
banana 50 y
grapes 6 z
watermelon 89 x
cantaloupe 5 x
orange 24 y
You need to adjust the formula you provided for the correct columns first.
=LARGE(INDEX(($B$2:$B$99)*($C$2:$C$99={"x","y"}), , ), ROW(1:1))
When that is done, it can be used as matching criteria in a larger formula that also matches column C for x, y.
=IFERROR(INDEX(A$2:A$99, MIN(INDEX(ROW($1:$98)+(($C$2:$C$99<>{"x","y"})+($B$2:$B$99<>LARGE(INDEX(($B$2:$B$99)*($C$2:$C$99={"x","y"}), , ), ROW(1:1))))*1E+99, , ))), "")
In the sample image below, that formula would go into E4. Fill both right and down as necessary.
If the values in the nmbr column may be duplicated (while still matching {x, y}) then one formula cannot be used for the entire lookup table. Use the following in F4.
=LARGE(INDEX(($B$2:$B$99)*($C$2:$C$99={"x","y"}), , ), ROW(1:1))
E4 would be,
=IFERROR(INDEX(A$2:A$99, SMALL(INDEX(ROW($1:$98)+(($C$2:$C$99<>{"x","y"})+($B$2:$B$99<>LARGE(INDEX(($B$2:$B$99)*($C$2:$C$99={"x","y"}), , ), ROW(1:1))))*1E+99, , ), COUNTIF($F$4:$F4, $F4))), "")
Copy and paste E4 to G4 then select E4:G4 and fill down.
Note that when transcribing the formula for your own use, ROW(1:98) is the position within A2:A99, not the actual row on the worksheet.
