    How to find the max cell reference from multiple tables

    Hi,
    I'm trying to create a winners grid from 8 tables where I want to find the cell with the max %.

    I can get the max cell function to give me the value of the max cell using the below code but I've been unable to work out how to get it to reference which cell its coming from possibly because they aren't in sequential columns:
    =MAX(
    'Q1'!B54,
    'Q1'!O54,
    'Q1 '!AB54,
    'Q1 '!AO54,
    'Q1 '!BB54,
    'Q1 '!BO54,
    'Q1 '!CB54,
    'Q1 '!CO54)

    Anyone else managed to do something similar to this?
    Thanks

    You'd have to do a MATCH to find where it's located (assuming the MAX value is unique)

    Ensure you describe your problem clearly, I have little time available to solve these problems and do not appreciate numerous changes to them.

    Try

    Formula: copy to clipboard
    =max('Q1'!B54,Q1'!O54,Q1 '!AB54,etc.......)
