I would need to extract the second biggest number from this list. Note: This list cannot be sorted. I have already found out how to do it from a sorted list. Also I would need this to be done possibly through a formula and not any UDF. -- Warm Regards, Andy -- FORUM RULES (934+ members already BANNED for violation) 1) Use concise, accurate thread titles.
