How to select result from table of data?
This is a weird one that I couldn't find any help on. I have two sheets. On the first one is a bunch of data and formulas, but the end result is a column with the number of miles each person has walked. The second sheet has a list of cities, along with their miles between each one and a cumulative number of miles for the full circuit. I would like to enter a formula into sheet one (column "Passed Location") where it looks at sheet two (column "Cumulative Miles") and tells me what location they have already passed. I included a picture of the second sheet below. Thank you for any and all help on this.

Are you able to provide a screenshot of the first sheet as well?

Here you go. These are just simple Excel examples. There are over 30 people and around 45 locations, so trying to do a massive IF statement seemed like a flawed solution. Thanks for the help.

Use INDEX-MATCH with the MATCH search type of "1":
=INDEX(Location:Location, MATCH([Total Equiv. Miles]@row, Cumulative:Cumulative, 1))
I put both sheets in one for simplicity. To the left of the black bar is Sheet 1 and Sheet 2 is on the right.
