Hello,
There may be better ways of doing this, but I need to find a formula that will pick up a value in
the first row of filtered data. I was searching the web yesterday, and came across a horrendous
formula, which I don't understand and doesn't appear to work with my data.
It may be the way I've edited the range. Is there something simpler I can use?
Sample data attached.
I've found one basic mistake in that it was an array formula so I should have pressed CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER.
I've also found a much simpler version which in my case is
{=INDEX(P8:P94880,MIN(IF(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(P8,ROW(P8:P94880)-ROW(P8),0)),ROW(P8:P94880)-ROW(P8)+1))}, where P
is the column being filtered and P8 is the first row, and P8:P94880 is the range of rows.
Any further thoughts would be welcome. What if I wanted to filter on two columns of data?
Hi Tim,
I'd use PivotTables instead of overly complicated formulas.

How did I know you'd say that
