Thanks for clearing that up. I pasted it from the Google link and it
works fine now. Just a tip if anyone else reads this - when I pasted
it in, it didn't seem to want to be entered as an array formula, so I
just deleted one of the brackets and replaced it, then pressed ctrl
-shift-enter and it worked.

Thanks again.

Believe the site/place where you're posting to or reading posts from
unfortunately removes all the "greater than", "less than" or "not equal
to"
symbols from posts, including from within formulas, that's the trouble
..

.... MAX((A1:A65535"") ...

There's a missing "not equal to" sign between the
A65535 and the double quotes "" in the above part

Just insert the missing piece in the formula, and it'll work fine ..
