I have a spread sheet using the MAX command to find the max number in column
F. When it finds the number how do I find the contents of the matching cell in
column A. I am thinking I need to use the IF statement but from there I am stuck. Thanks for any help with this.
Max
[VBA]
Option Explicit
Sub FindMaxCell()
Dim maxRng As Range, maxCell As Range
Dim iMax As Variant, thisValue As Variant
Set maxRng = Columns(6)
iMax = Application.Max(maxRng)
Set maxCell = maxRng.Find(What:=iMax)
thisValue = maxCell.Offset(0, -5).Value
MsgBox thisValue
End Sub
