I have a column A where i have the State names. A second column with a number.
I need to be able to use formulas that give me the Max number per State. The
regular Max formula does not work with a conditional from another column,
like SUMIF or COUNTIF.

Can I do it?

Thanks!

Hi,

Use this ARRAY formula

=MAX(IF(A1:A20="California",B1:B20))

This is an array formula which must be entered by pressing CTRL+Shift+Enter
'and not just Enter. If you do it correctly then Excel will put curly brackets
'around the formula {}. You can't type these yourself. If you edit the formula
'you must enter it again with CTRL+Shift+Enter.

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.
