Hi
yes it does. It returns the values for the max column/row in this case. What
would be your expected output for such cases?

Yes, you are correct - I guess my problem is that I have duplicate values
in
my sheet. Basically I have the same row headings & column settings - So,
when I have a Red/Magenta correlation, I also have a Magenta/Red
Correlation
(same values in the cells). This seems to pose a problem with the
formula.

Don't let the MAX() in the formula fool you!

Manually enter *ANY* value in J1, and you'll see that you'll still get
your
labels.

That works great, but my poor description was a little off ;-( More
clearly
what I need to do is find a specific value from the matrix that may not
be
the MAX value, and return the column & row - Thank you!

Hi
try the following to array formulas (entered with cTRL+SHIFT+ENTER):
=INDEX(A1:G1,MAX(IF(B2:G7=J1,COLUMN(B2:G7))))
and
=INDEX(A1:A7,MAX(IF(B2:G7=J1,ROW(B2:G7))))

I have a matrix I have created in Excel. I am using this for
correlations.
I have cells B1 through G1 filled with text names (the same values
as
A2
through A7). In the matrix fields I calulate their correlations.
In
a
seperate field, say J1, I am calculating the highest correlation
value
from
my matrix. What I would like to do in cells K1 and/or L1 is find
the
corresponding text names for that high correlation. So for example
if
cell
E1 is Red and cell A2 is Magenta and their correlation is .95, the
highest
in
the matrix, Cell J1 calculates .95. I would like cell(s) K1 and/or
L1
to
return Red Magenta.

Hope this makes some sense - Happy New Year
