comment How can I estimate the Nth value (or Nth percentile) from a frequency distribution in Excel?
With that volume of data, perhaps storing the data in a database (Access, SQL Server Express) and manipulating the data with Excel would be a better approach? Unfortunately, I don't have any practical experience with manipulating large database data sets with Excel. Any thoughts, @dkusleika?

comment Fill down in Excel, but based on multiple values
I just happened to need to do this again, and decided to try again. I had no difficulties. Do you know which step(s) caused problems for you?

comment Excel how to reference a list
I just tried your example and the @ sign in front of ColB causes an error. just using =[ColB] works for me.

comment Excel how to reference a list
+1, but the terminology in Excel 2007 is "table", not "list". Also, this only works if you have all the data in a single table. It looks like @Stan has those 2 columns separated out. Otherwise, he'll have to follow @Dan's advice and drag the formula sufficiently far enough down the sheet.

comment Good books for learning Excel VBA
+1 for any of John Walkenbach's books. There's also an edition out for Excel 2010 now too.
