Hi there
using vlookup is there a way to have the highest value returned if there is more than one value for a lookup, or will only the first match ever be returned

Hope the question makes sense

Thanks

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.

Not using Vlookup - but you could do it with something like:

={MAX(IF(A1:A8="John",B1:B8))} which is an array formula ( enter with ctrl shift enter)
