Looks like you are asking for the following...

	A	B	C	D	E	F	G

Sheet1

In F1 control+shift+enter, not just enter:

=VLOOKUP(MAX(IF($A$2:$A$4<=E1,$A$2:$A$4)),$A$2:$B$4,2,0)

In G1 control+shift+enter, not just enter:

=VLOOKUP(MIN(IF($A$2:$A$4>=E1,$A$2:$A$4)),$A$2:$B$4,2,0)

If the MAXIFS and MINIFS functions are available on your Excel system...

In F1 just enter:

=VLOOKUP(MAXIFS($A$2:$A$4,$A$2:$A$4,"<="&E1),$A$2:$B$4,2,0)

In G1 just enter:

=VLOOKUP(MINIFS($A$2:$A$4,$A$2:$A$4,">="&E1),$A$2:$B$4,2,0)
