I got the first part still working on the second. Def need more experience with Macros

Here's my solution.  answers using Distance and Find Nearest are not the same, but I can't figure out what makes the outcomes different.

I am not happy with my macro (need to rebuild it), however it works (second result is smaller then in expected output) but I assume that is correct

 Not very happy with how I handled the iterations with this approach but it gets the job done

Agreed about the smaller "closest distance" answer!

Very simple solution using an iterative macro that also gets the shorter correct distance. Comments added to help those that might be struggling.
