Thanks, Paul, but I found this hard to follow. Excel kept returning that I
had disabled macros but your formula didn't look like a macro to me. I must
have been doing something wrong.

De, not know why you would get that, if you put the formula in a cell, not
in column A, it should return the cell address with the max value in column
A
