You might need to create a top 10 or top 3 report in Excel. For example you'd like to get the top 3 values but there are two categories that have the exact same value and both are considered number 2. How can you show both categories as number 2 and not just the first one? VLOOKUP will not help here, because it will return the first match. You'd like ALL matches returned. The solution uses the SUMPRODUCT function together with the Excel COUNTIF function to get the ranking. We then use the TEXTJOIN and IF functions together as an array to get the category names ranked in ascending order.
