I am using the following formula
=IF(B2=LARGE(B2:B22;1);"A";"B")

The formula works fine if the cells being referenced contain numbers, but if the numbers in those cells are the result of a formula then things don't work.

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
