Multi Dimension code or script question

I have six dimensions and I only want to report the one closest to 16.0mm???? is there a script or code to do this. I'm trying to learn this fancy programing

Here is a sample of the six dimension that I have. Thanks for the help. Be easy on me I'm new to this part of programing

It's fugly but it seems to get the job done. I'm sure that someone will come up with better. I did this in 3.7 but it should work for you.

Thanks EHines
It did get the job done... There are a few questions maybe tomorrow you could inlighten me... Thanks again EHines
