Excel: How to find the row dynamically with an Index Match formula

Question

There are two tables:

1. Holds the actual values
2. Holds the ranking of the values by column in the first table

Please see the image below for an example:

As shown in the picture above, I want to find the row in the ranking table on the right that has a value of 3 , in the column Tone_Rank .

I'd then like to use that row to find the actually value corresponding to that row for the column starting with the same name on the table to the right. Here is what I have so far:

=INDEX(B2:E6,MATCH(???),MATCH(M4,G1:J1,0))

Answer 1

=SMALL(INDEX($B$2:$E$6,0,MATCH(LEFT(M4,FIND("_",M4)-1),$B$1:$E$1,0)),M2)

Answer 2

How about the following: =INDEX($B$1:$E$6,MATCH($M$2,INDEX($G1:$J6,,MATCH($M$4,$G$1:$J$1,0)),0),MATCH($M$4,$G$1:$J$1,0))

An extra index match is needed to get the correct column for searching the row number of your value.

You could even do this all at once without the _Rank helper table: =INDEX($A$1:$E$6,MATCH(LARGE(INDEX($A$1:$E$6,,MATCH($M$4,$A$1:$E$1,0)),$M$2),INDEX($A$1:$E$6,,MATCH($M$4,$A$1:$E$1,0)),0),MATCH($M$4,$A$1:$E$1,0)) Note that the value in M4 then needs to be "Tone" not "Tone_Rank"

I hope this helps (and yes, you can switch from large to small for flipping the ranking (high-low vs. Low-high).

Lol, I overlooked scott already posted a better version of this
