    Maximum value in a range to return a certain word

    I have a range U3:Z3. I want to find the max value of that range and depending which column the max value is in I need to return a certain word in cell AC3.

    So if the max value is in U3, i want to return "Ex" in AC3, if its in V3 then "Mm" in AC3 etc. Is there one formula I can put in AC3 that will do this? Thanks for the help.

    Re: Maximum value in a range to return a certain word

    Hi,

    What's the link between columns U, V, W..etc and "Ex", "Mm", "??" etc.

    Do these text items appear on a different row in columns U:Z?

    If so and assuming row 4 contains the values
