Return the column

[Guest]

Hi Group,

I am looking for a formula that will return the column of a min and max
formula. I am looking across row 38 with two formulas to find both a min and
a max value, no problem. But I would like to return the columns of min and
max locations. The formula far the max is =MAX(I38:T38,W38:AH38,AK38:AV38)
and returns a value, but I want the column of the location of that max value
returned.

Thanks,

Hi Davis,

=MATCH(MAX(I38:T38,W38:AH38,AK38:AV38),38:38,0)

If you meant the column *number*, rather than the column as you posted,
then Niek Otten has supplied a formula.
