Dear All,

I have the following names in a row like below


[TABLE="align: center"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="width: 63, bgcolor: [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FFFFFF]#FFFFFF[/URL] "]Sam[/TD]
[TD="width: 63, bgcolor: [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FFFFFF]#FFFFFF[/URL] "]John[/TD]
[TD="width: 63, bgcolor: [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FFFFFF]#FFFFFF[/URL] "]Jack[/TD]
[TD="width: 77, bgcolor: [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FFFFFF]#FFFFFF[/URL] "]George Paul[/TD]
[TD="width: 71, bgcolor: [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FFFFFF]#FFFFFF[/URL] "]Mathew Joy[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]



and I have a table on another sheet where I have the following data,

<!-- Please do not remove this header -->


[TABLE="align: center"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD="width: 81, bgcolor: [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FFFFFF]#FFFFFF[/URL] "]Sam[/TD]
[TD="width: 63, bgcolor: [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=FFFFFF]#FFFFFF[/URL] , align: right"]45[/TD]

[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]


As a result in the next column cell I need the name of the highest aged person and in next column cell his age.

as in this case

[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500, align: left"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]George Paul[/TD]
[TD]85[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]




There is around 2000 rows everyday and Presently I am doing it manually.

If I get a VBA code it would save me a lot of work.

Thanks in Advance

Jack

Do you hate GETPIVOTDATA?
Prevent GETPIVOTDATA. Select inside a PivotTable. In the Analyze tab of the ribbon, open the dropown next to Options and turn it off
Sort by date Sort by votes
What result(s) & layout would you want if John also had 85?

What do the names in a horizontal row have to do with it? Aren't you just asking who had the highest value in the table on the other sheet?

Which sheet do the results go on?

Dear Peter,
Thanks for replying

First no same name will have same age as I have made the data that way.
I get the data where the persons in groups of 4 or 5 travel and they enter their names in a cell.
I use the text to column to get the names in separate columns
Then assign a leader of the group according to the highest aged person in the next column.
the result should be in the sheet where the rows are.

Like below

Thanks for the clarification. Next question is: Do you really need VBA? Could you just use formulas like this (with sheet names & ranges adjusted) copied down?

Sounds like the numbers in KM column B are Text not actual Numbers. Hopefully new formulas below will cope with that.

Bit hard to have the data and the results in the same cell so you may have to adjust the formulas a little.
Edit: Ah, hadn't seen your last post but hopefully still you can adjust if needed. :)
