Excel function: Which value is larger

Question

In Excel, is there a native function that will return the larger of two values? I'm looking to avoid using the IF function. I'm using Excel 2010 Beta if that's worth anything.

For example: GTR(66,24) will return 66.

Answer 1

Try MAX(Cell1, Cell2)

Answer 2

Have a look at Max

The MAX function, one of Excel's statistical functions, is used to find the largest or maximum number in a given list of values or arguments.

=MAX( argument1, argument2, ... argument30 )
