Crazy use of MAX function. [message #15930]

I have data to be plotted. I want to create YRANGE based on max/min of
the data. The problem is that the maximum is always lower than "9999",
which is used to indicate "bad" data.

Without having to replace all 9999's with, say, zero , using MAX to find
the true maximum and then putting the 9999's back where they were...

How do I find a maximum/minumum value less/greater than a certain value?

MAX(data lt 9999) doesn't work. :-(

Ugh, I just thought of a way:

MAX(data(WHERE(data LT 9999)))

Is this the only way, or, does IDL already have something that does this
task?
