picking largest number
use =MAX()
=MAX(A:A) if down a column or =MAX(1:1) if in a row. "dnmusic" wrote: if i have a row or column of numbers, what formula do i use to pick out the largest numer... i.e. 10, 14, 6, 28, 59, 37... i need to pull out 59 |

picking largest number
If data is real numbers, then just normal Enter, eg in B1: =MAX(A1:A10)
If data is text numbers or a mix of text/real numbers, then array Enter* in B1: =MAX(A1:A10+0) *press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to confirm the formula Any good? hit the YES below -- Max Singapore http://savefile.com/projects/236895 Downloads:27,000 Files:200 Subscribers:70 xdemechanik --- "dnmusic" wrote: if i have a row or column of numbers, what formula do i use to pick out the largest numer... i.e. 10, 14, 6, 28, 59, 37... i need to pull out 59 |

You can use,
=Large(your range of number here, 1) replace your range of number here with your actual range (row and/or column) You can check the large function under help "dnmusic" wrote: if i have a row or column of numbers, what formula do i use to pick out the largest numer... i.e. 10, 14, 6, 28, 59, 37... i need to pull out 59 |
