Hello--

I have a series of columns for which I'm trying to find the column header
for the max value. For example:

A B C D E F
Store 1 Store 2 Store 3 Store 4
Row 1 1 9 60 72 Store 4
Row 2 16 33 20 25 Store 2
Row 3 26 18 68 79 Store 4

I'm trying to find a formula that looks for the maximum value across a range
of columns and then returns the corresponding column header for that column.
The result I'm looking for is in column F.

Hoping someone can help.

Thanks!!

In cell F1 apply the below formula and copy down as required

="Store " & MATCH(MAX(B1:E1),B1:E1,0)
