    Max Index Match formula

    Hi, having a few issues combing the Max, Index and Match formulas. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    In the attached very simple SS, I am trying to lookup the Max value in Column B, given a certain series in Row 1.

    For example, the 6th data point in Row 1, should correspond to the largest value within B1:B6. This is 20, not 15 like I have.

    The answers I'm looking for are in Row 3.

    Thanks very much in advance.

    Try

    =MAX(D4,MAX(INDEX($B$1:$B$10,MATCH(E$1,$E$1:E1,0))))

    Re: Max Index Match formula

    Try

    =MAX($B$1:INDEX($B$1:$B$10,MATCH(E1,$E$1:E1,0)))


    Though I don't think the Match is required here, so try
    =MAX($B$1:INDEX($B$1:$B$10,E$1))
