Input Range 1: C3:C17 is contiguous rows which generates positive integer values AND they are unique to each other AND >0
Input Range 2: E3:E17 is contiguous rows which generates positive integer values AND they are unique to each other AND >0

Output range 3: G3:G17: Values from Range 1 in INCREASING order of Range 2
Output range 4: I3:I17: Values from Range 1 in DECREASING order of Range 2

How to accomplish? Thanks in advance.

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.

BTW Fluff in K3:K5 can I get the Lowest, 2nd lowest & 3rd lowest of G3:G17 respectively
Similarly in M3:M5, I need Largest, 2nd largest & 3rd largest of I3:I17 respectively
