    Find Max of numbers using relative reference

    I need to find the max of values located in cells with changing addresses. I am trying to use a combination of MAX and ADDRESS command but get an error message.
    =MAX(ADDRESS(L3,M3):ADDRESS(N3,M3))
    Here I am trying to find a maximum among numbers located in the range of cells (address of which is specified according to numbers in cells L3,M3 and N3)
    Kindly help

    What exactly is in L3 M3 and N3 ?

    What are the values, and are they a result of more formulas? What are those formulas?
