I have a workbook with multiple sheets. The last sheet returns the 10 largest inputs from all the sheets. I cant seem to get the data that belongs to the outcome. I want to have the name that belongs to the largest number in the column left to the number.

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
Hi TheTeacher and welcome to the board.
Is your results based on formula or macro?
If on formula could you post it?

=LARGE(year01:year97!A:C;1)
=LARGE(year01:year97!A:C;2) etc.
Its a list of grades in different classes.
In the last sheet I have the top ten students. I have the formula working great to return the grades but I cant seem to get the names to come with it.
The names are in column A and the data in Column B...

Are the names in column D?

To post your data you can download and install two of the following programs:

HTLMaker

or
Excel Jeanie

or when using Internet Explorer just put a borders around your data in Excel and copy those cells into your post.
