Requirement: identify cell value starting with number excluding 0 from a range of cells containing text or blanks.
I could write a query when all cells contain numeric value.
INDEX(A1:C1,0,MATCH(MIN(IF(VALUE(LEFT(A1:C1))<>0,VALUE(LEFT(A1:C1)))),VALUE(LEFT(A1:C1)),0))
But this doesn't work when cells include text or blanks. in the below example, I am expecting "1-Not Started" as the output ...
Many thx for your support.
