=max(range) returns the max value. Fair enough.
But what’s the quickest way to then go to the cell that contains this value? (other than using ctrl F)
ps andrew- the missing $ did the trick…

You could use a VBA procedure like this:
Public Sub GoToMax() Dim dMax As Double Dim oCell As Range, oMaxCell As Range For Each oCell In Selection If IsNumeric(oCell.Value) Then If oMaxCell Is Nothing Then dMax = oCell.Value Set oMaxCell = oCell Else If oCell.Value > dMax Then dMax = oCell.Value Set oMaxCell = oCell End If End If End If Next oCell If Not oMaxCell Is Nothing Then oMaxCell.Select End Sub
Select the cells you want to go to the max in and run the macro.
