How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
perfect, one more question. if there isn't a date yet in a1 the value in b1 show Saturday, is there a way to keep the value blank until a date is entered in a1?
