you don't really need a macro to do what you're describing. assuming your
potential max value is in column B this formula would return the max:

=MAX(B:B)

and assuming the max value cannot occur in the column more than once, this
would return the value to the left of it:

=INDIRECT(ADDRESS(MATCH(MAX(B:B),B:B,0),1))

I am trying to create a macro from scratch that can tell me what value is the
maximum value in a column of values and then what the value is in the cell to
the left of that max value. I thought a for loop would work for the max
value part but i dont know how to get it to do that last part. Any help
would be great, I am not good at programming.
