automatically updating "school event record" formula
 

I have two columns each with numbers in them.
*Column A* has a current event score in it for an event.
*Column B* has the alltime record in it.
I want *Column B* to update with a new record anytime a *Column A* cell
exceeds the value in *Column B*. If this were the case, the cell in
*Column B* would then be replaced by the *Column A* cell. And then it
would "lock" with the new "permanant" record until it is broken again
by a higher *Column A* record.

*Column A* is constantly updating, but *Column B* has to remain the
same until the record is broken. I thought this would be easy but I
can't get it to work or find a function that would do it for me. I
tried creating a 3rd column and using some if statements to reference
the other two, but keep getting circular reference errors. I don't
want to use any VB. Any one good an idea? Thanks for the help!!
