An if question

[Guest]

Hi I have in a row 3 different values that I want to compare with a specific
value on the same row. It looks like below

A B C D
10 20 30 22

If D is higher than B I want it to return B if is lower I want it to return
A. So far so good, this I can do but if it looks like below and b & c are
empty, I cant get it to return, A it just returna a blank.

A B C D
10 22

This is the formula I used.

=IF(S2>Z2;Z2;IF(S2>Y2;Y2;X2))

I'ts kind of hard to explain what I mean, I hope someone understands my
question

If the values in A B and C will always be in order, then you could use
a formula like this:

=HLOOKUP(D2,A2:C2,1)

This would be equivalent to:

=HLOOKUP(S2,X2:Z2,1)

using the references in your formula.

Hope this helps.

Hi Pete, I'm afraid it doesn't do the job. If in the example below the only
data (22) would be would be in column b instead it doesn't work.

Do you have another exmple?
