I have a spreadsheet that contains a column of Estate
Agent names and a column that says how many properties (%)
on their database have full postcode.

In this s/sheet I also have a formula which tells me the
maximum % of full postcode.

However, I would like, if possible, a formula to match the
result in with the Estate Agents name. E.g if Alan Ayers
had 100% (maximum %) then I would want to display their
name. How can I do this as they are in another column to
the result?
 
Hi
use VLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH for this
e.g. column B stores your percentages, column A your names and in cell
C1 is a formula like
=MAX(B:B)

then use the following formula
=INDEX(A1:A100,MATCH(C1,B1:B100,0))
