Default help on INDEX


Hi,
I am trying to use INDEX function to find the match for the maximum
score in a set of columns (say O2:O25,Q2:Q25,S2:S25 )and return the
corresponding name from column M.

I used the following formula
=INDEX(M2:M25,MATCH(MAX(O2:O25,Q2:Q25,S2:S25),O2:O 25,0))
here it would return me the value only if the maximum score is present
in
O2:O25

But i need to match the the maximum score with more than one columns.
ie i want to match it with O2:O25,Q2:Q25,S2:S25.

I tried out this formula
=INDEX(M2:M25,MATCH(MAX(O2:O25,Q2:Q25,S2:S25),O2:O 25,Q2:Q25,S2:S25,0))

But its not executing.

Please provide me a solution.

Appreciate ur time n help:)

Harsha
