Default Help with a complicated search function in Excel

I have a worksheet that has salespeople's names in column B and sales totals
in column AJ. Obviously these totals change over time. I would like to had
a formula that checks for the largest sales number (I got the MAX part) and
pulls the name in column B. Basically I'd like a section where I can have
"Salesperson of the month:" and the output. I do have data in column A and
in various more columns after AJ that I would not like to move around.

=INDEX(B2:B50,MATCH(MAX(AJ2:AJ50),AJ2:AJ50,0))

adapt to fit your ranges, will return name from B2:B50 with max value in
AJ2:AJ50
