Hi All,
I need some assistance to get the Excel AX function to determine the maximum value in a row of cells not including the blank cells.

All help appreciated.

Is it not working as expected?

I actually meant MIN()

It was not. I used the help and it said MIN() evaluates blanks as zero and returns zero.

But now that I've gotten frustrated and sent this message, I reopened it and it works just fine. <arg>

=========I think that's incorrect. I just ran a quick test and MIN() ignored the blanks, which is what I would expect. 

But now that I've gotten frustrated and sent this message, I reopened it and it works just fine. <arg>

=========Yeah! ?

Subject: [Dba-office] Publisher data entry forms
Message-ID: <016b01d322b5$48155960$d8400c20$@gmail.com>

I'd like to build a data entry form for a Publisher template. I can't find
any kind of userform type object in Publisher, so I'm guessing the best way
is to collect the data in Excel, add a Userform, and them merge. 

Any thoughts? Have a missed an existing feature for this in Publisher?
