Subject: $$Excel-Macros$$ Re:Help to find position of a particular number in a
given data set
Hi,
I need help to find position of a particular number in a given data set. Please
refer to the table below.
Fin. Inst. Rates in %
A 10
B 11
C 12
D 11
E 6
F 9
G 8
H 8
I 9
J 7
In the above example, Rates are given for each financial institution. In
descending order,the rate 12% is at the 1st position,11% is 2nd highest and so
on. While using function LARGE or SMALL, we need to assign kth position to get
the required result.
I need to find (kth) position of given rate from the list, ignoring the
duplicate items. Going back to the above example, 11% will be the second
highest rate, 10% being the third highest rate and so on. Please let me know
the function or combination of functions.
Thank you for your help and time.
Regards,
Atul Patel
