Split Values To Use Max Function | Rate this: (3/5 from 1 vote) |
| The easiest solution would be to split the values by the "-" character so that the MAX function can be used on the part required. To do this, you can use the Text to Columns functionality and choose the "-" as the separator. Otherwise FIND, LEFT, RIGHT and IF functions can be used in combination within a somewhat complex formula. | ||
