Hello,

Can anyone help me with the following: I would like one of the cells
on my spreadsheet to reflect the greater of two values. In other
words, let's say cell A1 contains the value 23 and cell A2 contains the
value 24. How do I make a third cell, i.e. cell B3, automatically
reflect the greater value (in this example, 24)? When it comes to
formulas, I'm only familiar with the most basic of basics, like
summation or subtraction or multiplication. So if anyone could provide
a basic formula, I would very greatly appreciate it. Thanks.
