ok i ran into a snag here...... when i enter the array the formula is what is shown in the cell... i have modified it a bit to suit me... did i do soemthing wrong... or is it that i am trying to do this from another sheet that is causing the prob

{=INDEX(main!$c14:$c250,MATCH(0,COUNTIF(main!$c14:$c250,"<"&main!$c14:$c250),0))}

What is the problem exactly? The formula looks right for D2, but you need to change the formulas for E2 and F2.
