vlookup for maximum value
Hi,
i have a table with two columns: in column A are five different companies and in column B are the numbers of outgoing invoices. i would like to find - maybe by using vlookup function - the highest outgoing invoice nzmber at one selected company. are there some kind of combination of formulas to solve this problem? thx in advance! |

vlookup for maximum value
Go to Data--Subtotals and subtotal by PO number and select the MAX function
in the dialogue box. That should show you the largest numbered PO for each company. Just make sure your data is formatted as a table.

Well you could use a macro to do what you describe, but why bother when Excel
has the SUBTOTAL function.... -- Brevity is the soul of wit.

Try this
=SUMPRODUCT(MAX((A2:A100="company name")*(B2:B100))) "Gábor" wrote: Hi, i have a table with two columns: in column A are five different companies and in column B are the numbers of outgoing invoices. i would like to find - maybe by using vlookup function - the highest outgoing invoice nzmber at one selected company. are there some kind of combination of formulas to solve this problem? thx in advance! |
