Need to take a colum and find the smallest number in it but it must be
greater than 0.01 any help would be great

Hi,

Try this ARRAY formula

=MIN(IF(A1:A20>0.01,A1:A20))

This is an array formula which must be entered by pressing CTRL+Shift+Enter
'and not just Enter. If you do it correctly then Excel will put curly brackets
'around the formula {}. You can't type these yourself. If you edit the formula
'you must enter it again with CTRL+Shift+Enter.

It returned 0.00, or you think it will so you didn't try it?

Not in my testing.

Returns 0.010000001 as minimum but not 0.01 or less.

How are your cells formatted?
