Maximum Value in column

Hi, trying to find a maximum value in a column.
Guesse errors would need to take into account cells that have headerl lines
with text
(need to do numbers only?)

Tried: =IF(ISNUMBER(BI100:BI3000),MAX(BI100:BI3000))
but not quite there yet

Max ignores text values within a range so you should only need

=MAX(BI100:BI3000

Is this what you are looking for*?*



=MAX(IF(ISNUMBER(Bi100:Bi3000),Bi100:Bi3000,"")

Hi,

Use the array formula,

=MAX(IF(ISNUMBER(BI100:BI3000),BI100:BI3000,-1E+100))

Confirm with CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER
