Offset on a Filtered List

I am trying to find the value of the cell directly below cell B3 in a
filtered list; the list will change constantly as new criteria are selected.
How can I do that?

Thanks,

Yes! Exactly! B3 is a header. I have some info. in the first two rows, and
the headers are in row three and the data starts in row four. Any
suggestions as to how to use a dynamic offset??? I would like the value that
shows up in the cell right below B3 to also show in B1. In one of my
examples, when I apply the filter the cell that is displayed right below B3
is B14 and in another example, when I choose a different criteria to filter
by, the cell that is displayed right below B3 is B101. Again, in B1, I would
like to display the value that shows up in the cell right below B3. Having
worked with Excel for several years, I have seen the app. do many amazing
things. I'm sure it is capable of this too...I just don't know how to do it!!

Appreciate any help,

Assume the data range is B4:B15.

Array entered** :

=INDEX(B4:B15,MATCH(1,(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(B4:B15,ROW(B4:B15)-MIN(ROW(B4:B15)),0,1)))*(B4:B15<>""),0))

** array formulas need to be entered using the key combination of
CTRL,SHIFT,ENTER (not just ENTER)
 
UNREAL!! Just UNREAL!!

Biff, you helped me a couple of times before too. Thanks for all the
functions from those previous times too.

Hey Ryan,

I read this reply and this is exactly what I was looking to do as well. The formula works perfectly, so thank you for that. I have one follow up question though.

My data range was from B3:B64. When I enter those ranges into the formula I get back the expected results I wanted when I filter on column B. This data, however, gets updated on a regular basis that I just copy and paste into this column. So now the data ranges is from B3:B64, but tomorrow I'll copy and paste in information with a data range from B3:B90, then next week it'll be B3:B100 (as an example).

Is it possible to add or manipulate something with this formula to account for the fluctuations in the data range? Basically I don't want to have to go back into the formula each time and change the data range.

Thanks,
Kris
