I want a formula to look at range F2:F6 and pick the min value and then
return the value from column B in the same row.

I've been trying to combine INDIRECT, ROW and MIN, but I can't seem to get
it working.

Can anyone help?
 
Hi Carlos,

Does this work?

=INDEX(B2:B6,MATCH(MIN(F2:F6),F2:F6,0))

How about something like this:
=OFFSET(B2,MATCH(MIN(F2:F6),F2:F6,0)-1,0)
 
Ken's is probably a little more efficient and understandable since it does
away with the need to subtract one from the results.

Both solutions worked perfectly.

Thanks to you both.

How about that!

I've done something right for a change!

Thanks for that JLatham:-)

Also, thanks to Carlos for the feedback.
