Hi. I want to use an array command that will evaluate a column of text
entries; identify the numeric portion, and finally determine the single
largest number of the array.
Here is a sample/illustration of what I am talking about:
| A | B | C
|
---|--------+----------------------------------------------+----------------+
1 |ID Nos. | Formula to Get Numeric from End of "ID Nos." | Formula
Result |
---|--------+----------------------------------------------+----------------+
2 | t-199 | =VALUE(MID(A7,FIND("-",A7)+1,3)) |
199 |
---|--------+----------------------------------------------+----------------+
3 | t-204 | =VALUE(MID(A7,FIND("-",A7)+1,3)) |
204 |
---|--------+----------------------------------------------+----------------+
4 | t-382 | =VALUE(MID(A7,FIND("-",A7)+1,3)) |
382 |
---|--------+----------------------------------------------+----------------+
5 | | |
|
---|--------+----------------------------------------------+----------------+
6 | | Formula to Get Largest Value C2:C4 | Formula
Result |
---|--------+----------------------------------------------+----------------+
7 | | =LARGE(C2:C4,1) |
382 |
---|--------+----------------------------------------------+----------------+
Thanks for the help.
