MIN and MAX are still under testing here :) Brian indicated that VLOOKUP would work; I don't say different, I'm just not sure how in this situation. I'm not that familiar with VLOOKUP though, so it may not be that difficult, but it seems like it would still be complicated. I still feel that the best approach is to put columns for intermediate steps; VLOOKUP might make more sense after that. > I am however still waiting for someone to indicate to me which part > of the formula in the Formula Wizard the boxes apply i.e. what is the > difference between the 'Result' and 'Function Result' answer box. The "Result" box shows the result of the complete formula for the cell, while the "Function Result" box shows the result of just the function currently under the cursor. For example, let's say you have typed "=SQRT(SUM(A1:A2))", and A1 was 4 and A2 was 5. If you put your cursor on "SQRT", both boxes would hold the answer 3, as that is both the final result of the formula, and the result of "SQRT(9)". If, however, you put your cursor on "SUM", then the "Result" box would still show 3, as that is still the result of the complete formula, but the "Function Result" box would now hold 9, as that is the result of "SUM(A1:A2)".
