How return Approximate match decimal number?
My matrix below (A1:D1)
38,5038,6039,0038,40

<tbody>
</tbody>
I fill cell --> I1 = 38,47
Result cell --> I2 ​= 38,50
 

Excel Facts

Shade all formula cells
To shade all formula cells: Home, Find & Select, Formulas to select all formulas. Then apply a light fill color.
Code:
Function approx(val As Range, rng As Range) As Variant

    Dim achk As Double


    achk = 100000


    For Each cell In rng
    
        Select Case Abs(cell - val.Value)
        Case Is < achk
            achk = cell - val.Value
            approx = cell.Value
        End Select
    Next


End Function

Here's a custom function with cell ranges as inputs.

I tried using HLOOKUP and for some reason it didn't return the expected result. It will return exact matches with :

Code:
=HLOOKUP(A2,A1:D1,1,0)

but changing that to

Code:
=HLOOKUP(A2,A1:D1,1,1)

didn't return what I expected.

could try something like....

=INDEX(A1:D1,MATCH(I1,SMALL(A1:D1,{1,2,3,4})))
