    Identify where max values are found

    Hi all

    Does anyone know if there's a way for excel to tell me which cell has returned the max from a range, for example if i ask excel to find a max "=max(B10:B34)" then it will display the result 0.15 for example. Is there a way to make excel tell me which cell it found this data in, for example if the max first appears in B22 i would like it to display this in a new column

    any help greatly appreciated

    Thanks in advance
    Owen

    One way ..
    Put in say C1: ="B"&MATCH(MAX(B10:B34),B10:B34,0)+9

    Hi Owen,
    this worked for me...

    =ADDRESS(ROW(B10)-1+MATCH(MAX(B10:B34),B10:B34,0),COLUMN(B10),4)
