Hi everyone,

I need help in figuring out a formula.

Cell A1 = 2
Cell A2 = 3
Cell A3 = 3

Cell B1 = A
Cell B2 = B
Cell B3 = D

=======================================================================

Example #1 :

Now in cell:
A6 = 2
A7 = 3
A8 = 3

I'm trying create a formula that will place the following letters in cells A10, A11, and A12
Since there are duplicate values of the number 3 in cells A7 and A8.

A10 = A
A11 = B
A12 = D

=====================================================

Example #2 :

A6 = 3
A7 = 2
A8 = 3

Duplicate values of the number 3

I would like to have the following:

A10 = B
A11 = A
A12 = D

======================================================

Example #3 :

A6 = 3
A7 = 3
A8 = 2

I would like to have the following:

A10 = B
A11 = D
A12 = A

Thanks in advance!!
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Try this array formula in A10 copied down
=INDEX(B$1:B$3,SMALL(IF(A$1:A$3=A6,ROW(A$1:A$3)-ROW(A$1)+1),COUNTIF(A$6:A6,A6)))
Ctrl+Shift+Enter, not just Enter
