Default Max only if the last month is hte highest

Hello,

When referencing a row of data (say, A:K), I know I can =MAX for the highest
number on this row. What I would like is a formula that will return the max
number only if the max number is in column K. If the max number is not in K,
I would like a blank field.

Can someone help me with this?

Thanks in advance.
Jim

If desired, send your file to my address below. I will only look if:
1. You send a copy of this message on an inserted sheet
2. You give me the newsgroup and the subject line
3. You send a clear explanation of what you want
4. You send before/after examples and expected results.

One way:

=if(max(A1:K1)=K1, K1, "")
