Display adjacent cell as result...
Hello Gang:
I have two colums, Column A (Val1) and Column B (a number such as 456). If I use the expression =max(b1:b10) I get the highest value for that column, but what what I need is the adjacent cell name such as Val1. Thanks for the help in advance... -- Rafy Rivera |

=INDEX(A1:A10,MATCH(MAX(B1:B10),B1:B10,0))

Use MATCH() to find in what row the maximum is located and then INDIRECT() go
get the text value from column A: in C1 enter: =MAX(B1:B10) your max should appear in D1 enter: =MATCH(C1,B1:B10) the correct row number holding max should appear in E1 enter: =INDIRECT("A" & D1) the text in col A for that row should appear -- Gary's Student "prspiderman" wrote: Hello Gang: I have two colums, Column A (Val1) and Column B (a number such as 456).
