Max and Min
Hello,
I have a column that has the sales for each customer. I want to know the max and min values for each of these. However, some sales are negative values and some are zeroes. But, I want to exclude those values and use only the positive values for max and min. Can somebody help me with this? Thanks, RB |

Max and Min
One way (array-entered: CTRL-SHIFT-Enter or CMD-RETURN):
=MAX(IF(A1:A1000,A1:A100)) =MIN(IF(A1:A1000,A1:A100)) In article , RB wrote: Hello, I have a column that has the sales for each customer. I want to know the max and min values for each of these.

Max and Min
Presumably you have two columns then - one for customer (assume A) and
another for sales (assume B). If you list all your customers in column C, and use column D for the maximum and column E for the minimum, then you can put these array* formulae in the cells stated: D1: =MAX(IF((A$1:A$200=C1)*(B$1:B$2000),B$1:B$200)) E1: =MIN(IF((A$1:A$200=C1)*(B$1:B$2000),B$1:B$200,10E 10)) I've assumed that you have data in rows 1 to 200, so adjust the range references to suit (but you can't use full column references prior to Excel 2007). Copy the formulae down to cover your customers in column C. * As these are array formulae then once you have typed them in (and if you subsequently amend them) you need to use CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER (CSE) to commit them rather than the usual ENTER. If you do this correctly then Excel will wrap curly braces { } around the formula when viewed in the formula bar - do not type these yourself. Hope this helps.
