Default Compare data in three fields

Yes, you've confused me.

AWESOME! Thank you! Now . . . how do I use this to be able to add multiple
"IF" formula's? I'll try to explain. I have data in three columns that
need
to be compared just as your formula allows, but then I also need to
compare
data in multiple sets of three colums and have the max in each add to the
first formula? Have I confused you yet? Thanks again. Todd.

In A4, =IF(A1=MAX(A$1:A$3),A1,"") and copy down to A5 and A6. I'm
assuming
that you want the cell blank if the condition isn't satisfied. You
haven't
said what you want if there is a tie for top spot.

I need to look at the data in three fields, determine which is the
highest
of
the three and then have the highest of the three fields add up in a
fourth
field. I'll try to type in an example; if a1 is greater than a2 and
greater
than a3 then a1 needs to be posted into a4, but if a2 is greatest than
a2
needs to be posted in a5 and if a3 is greatest it needs to be posted in
a6.
Hope I didn't confuse you too much! Thanks. Todd.
