Hi everyone. I asked a question in this post

http://www.mrexcel.com/board2/viewtopic.php?t=282245&highlight=

and Krishnakumar at the bottom of the page suggested a formula. I'm using it but now I'd like to modify it slightly so that if symbols have the same volume for the same date, the symbol to be returned is the first symbol with that volume in the table. So, say AAA and BBB have the same volume on December 13, 2000, the symbol to be returned in cell H5 is AAA because it comes before BBB in the horizontal order of symbols.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Here's the table using Excel Jeanie:

512/13/200012/13/20002451195

Sheet1


and Krishnakumar's suggested formula:

H3:

=INDEX($K$2:$M$2,MATCH(MAX(INDEX($K$3:$M$5,MATCH(G3,$J$3:$J$5,0),0)),INDEX($K$3:$M$5,MATCH(G3,$J$3:$J$5,0),0),0))
 

Excel Facts

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.

Doesn't Kris' formula do what you want already?

Having said that ......try this formula in H3 copied down

=INDEX(K$2:M$2,MATCH(MAX(K3:M3),K3:M3,0))
