Excel min value greater than x returns 0 if no value found?

Question

I am using the following formula: =MIN(IF(A1:A5>B1,A1:A5)) use Ctrl-Shift-Enter My value for B1 is 10 and my array is {1,5,4,2,7} so in this case no value is greater than 1

Answer 1

Try using SMALL instead of MIN, i.e.

=SMALL(IF(A1:A5>B1,A1:A5),1)

Unlike MIN the SMALL function will return an error [#NUM!] for your example

....or if you want a text value instead of an error then use IFERROR function, too, i.e.

=IFERROR(SMALL(IF(A1:A5>B1,A1:A5),1),"None")
