I need to use the "Large" function to select the largest figure from a number of worksheets. The comparison number is in the same cell for each worksheet. How can I do this? Thanks.
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.

For the largest figure you can also use MAX

=MAX(Sheet1:Sheet3!B3:B4)
=LARGE(Sheet1:Sheet3!B3:B4,1)

Each will return the largest value in the range B3:B4 from sheets 1 through 3.

HTH,
