Excel: Get Maximum Number Between 2 Numbers

Got any Excel/VBA Questions? Free Excel Help

This Custom Function will extract the maximum number between any two specified numbers. If used on large ranges of data, it will slow down Excel's calculation.

The Code

Function GetMaxBetween(rCells As Range, MinNum, MaxNum)

Dim rRange As Range

Dim vMax

Dim aryNums()

Dim i As Integer



ReDim aryNums(rCells.Count)

    For Each rRange In rCells

     vMax = rRange

        Select Case vMax

           Case MinNum + 0.01 To MaxNum - 0.01

              aryNums(i) = vMax

              i = i + 1

           Case Else

               GetMaxBetween = 0

           End Select

    Next rRange

    

    GetMaxBetween = WorksheetFunction.Max(aryNums)

End Function

To use this UDF push Alt+F11 and go Insert>Module and paste in the code. Push Alt+Q and save. The Function will appear under "User Defined" in the Paste Function dialog box (Shift+F3). Use the Function in any cell as shown below. 

=GetMaxBetween(A1:A100,9,10)
This would return the highest number in the range A1:A100 that is less than 10, but greater than 9. Only accurate up to 0.01
