    Locate Cell Address from Multiple Worksheets

    I have identified the maximum value of a cell from 12 months' worksheets

    The formula works fine. This is it =MAX('Prizes October 2021:Prizes September 2022'!J3:J124,1) from which you will see that all the values are in column J>

    How could I identify which cell in which workbook contains the information? I have tried various forms of Match/VLOOKUP etc without success.

    If this is possible, is it all possible to pull the info from the adjoining cell?

    Thanks

    Welcome to the forum.

    Workbook??? I presume you mean worksheet. And di you mean to attach something?

    There are instructions at the top of the page explaining how to attach your sample workbook.

    A good sample workbook has just 10-20 rows of representative data that has been desensitised. It also has expected results mocked up, worked examples where required, relevant cells highlighted and a few explanatory notes.

    Re: Locate Cell Address from Multiple Worksheets

    Which 'unfriendly' message would that be? The one in which I brought the rule to your attention is a canned message: it is both polite and informative (and compulsory for cases like this) - did you read the rules you agreed to? You will find that the same rule applies on other forums, including Mr Excel.

    If you mean the first message, then I was simply explaining how you could attach your workbook to your post.

    I welcomed you to the forum (twice, actually).

    Which bit of this is 'unfriendly'?

    Feel free not to post here, but you will not be able to close your account. I will happily close your thread, though, if you wish.
