Default Formula

hi
if you just want to know the highest usage then use this formula
=max(A1:C1)
if you want to know the address of the highest useage use this formula
=ADDRESS(MAX((A1:C1)*ROW(A1:C1)/MAX(A1:C1)),MAX((A1:C1)*COLUMN(A1:C1)/MAX(A1:C1)),4,1)

the above is an array formula and must be enter with Ctrl+shift+enter not
just enter.

using xp2003 here
