Maximum Value of a Cell over a series of calculations
Kypp wrote:
Basically this is what I am trying to accomplish:
Column #1 -
This column will contain a formula that updates when an variable cell
value is changed elsewhere in the spreadsheet.
Column #2 -
I would like this column to update and display the value in Column #1
ONLY when the value in Column #1 is greater than the current value in
Column #2.
This should produce the maximum value over a long series of
calculations as I change a variable. The tricky part is I would like
to do this over a range of 300 cells without typing in a ton of VBA
code. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.
Thanks,

Hi Bryan,
Because you don't want to use VBA, I think you need a third column because a
cell can have or a formula or a value, not both depending on a condition.
So if we assume you use column A, B and C, starting from row 2 (I assume you
have headers in row 1), you will have your formula in column A, some values
in column B and you can type this formula in C2:
=IF(A2B2,A2,B2)
Now you can drag the cell C2 across the row. If you want you can also hide
the column B with the fixed values.
