MVMAX compares the values of a specified set of variables each day and returns the maximum value.

SYNTAX:

MVMAX(Cj, Cn:Cw, Cy, ...)
where :
Cx is a conditional variable x

NOTES:

Each variable must be specified as a Conditional Variable (use "C" instead of "V").

The variables may be referenced two different ways;  single variables separated by commas or a range specified by a beginning variable, a colon, and an ending variable.  These two methods can be combined. (i.e., C14:C22 will include all variables whose numbers fall between Variable 14 and Variable 22)

When specifying a range of variables,  there can be gaps in the series of existing variables.  For instance, if the specified range is C11:C17 and variable 14 does not exist, the function will calculate the remaining variables.

This function only works properly when all variables are the same frequency, i.e. all daily, all hourly, etc...  

This function will handle up to 199 variables.

EXAMPLES:

V126 = MVMAX(C70,C71,C1001:C1004,C1011)

In this case, variable 126 will contain the maximum daily value from each of the variables listed in the equation:

Example 2: Using Daily Detail (4 Hour) variables

V11379 = MVMAX(C11377,C11378)

where V11379,V11377, and V11378 are all 4-hour daily detail variables.  Note, to calculate values must be in the same data slot, not necessarily the same time.
