*HELP* Need a cell to return a column heading
Hello - I am in need of a formula to return the value from a column
heading. A B C MAX REF 1 0 3 3 1 2 1 2 0 0 0 0 3 0 1 3 2 0 3 3 2 0 3 3 1 0 2 2 0 2 0 2 1 0 2 2 In the REF column, I would like to lookup the value from the MAX column and return the correct column heading. So for example, the first REF cell would find the number 3 and return the answer C. The second cell down would find the number 2 and return the value B. Thanks for any assistance someone can provide!

Assuming that A, B and C are real headers that you put there and not the
built in column headers =INDEX($A$1:$D$1,MATCH(D2,$A2:$C2,0)) copy down this assumes you A is in A1 and the first data starts in A2 if there is more than one value that matches it will return the first occurrence -- Regards, Peo Sjoblom "dan" wrote in message ps.com...
