How do I get the highest value in a row in excel

Question

I'm looking to compare the value of the max score of a group of people, format is as follows:

date            user1   user2   user3
06/07/2011      123     112     244

How do I determine which of values on the row is the highest? Eg, I would like to pull 244 from this row.

Answer 1

How about using the max-function?

=MAX(b1:d1)

Answer 2

Use the max function in whatever cell you want it in: =Max(A2:A4)
