Hi,
Need help with a formula that will find the top 3 in a table and place the item in cell before.
In bottom table, D will have formula that will pick up 420, and C2 will pick up SQuash, then D3 will pick up 325 and C2 will pick up Okra. and so on.
I found how to use =large to pick up in order of top sold but cant find how to get the adjacent cell also. So C2 and D2 needs its own formula......spent a few days on this and just can't get it.
any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks!

How to total the visible cells?
From the first blank cell below a filtered data set, press Alt+=. Instead of SUM, you will get SUBTOTAL(9,)
Try this : (Sorry had it backwards, now it's fine)
