USA John Peter 12
Mexico JOHN Peter 20
FRA John C Peter 25


John Peter return value should be USA

INDEX($A$3:$A$5, MATCH(True, Exact(B8, $B$3:$B$5, 0))



This formula is suppose to return value from column A based on case sensitives lookup value in B8
But Excel says function has too many arguments. Could someone take a look please?

Excel Facts

Which lookup functions find a value equal or greater than the lookup value?
MATCH uses -1 to find larger value (lookup table must be sorted ZA). XLOOKUP uses 1 to find values greater and does not need to be sorted.
You are missing a ")" and need to confirm the formula with Ctrl+Shift+Enter
=INDEX($A$3:$A$5, MATCH(TRUE, EXACT(B8, $B$3:$B$5), 0))

or without C+S+E
=INDEX($A$3:$A$5, MATCH(TRUE, INDEX(EXACT(B8, $B$3:$B$5),0), 0))
