This function returns the largest value in a list of arguments, including text and logical values.
MAXA(value1,value2,...)
MAXA(array)
MAXA(array1,array2,...)
Each argument can be a double-precision floating point value, an integer value, text, or logical values. Up to 255 arguments may be included. You can use a single array (cell range) instead of a list of values. You can use multiple arrays (cell ranges) as well.
This function differs from MAX because it allows text and logical values as well as numeric values.
Accepts numeric, text, or logical data for all arguments. Returns numeric data.
MAXA(A1,B2,C3,D4,E5)
MAXA(A1:A9)
MAXA(R1C2:R1C15,R2C2:R2C15)
MAXA(2,15,12,3,7,19,4) gives the result 19
