Assuming you have no qualifying criteria, and you are just looking for the
biggest number
Either
=MAX(A1:A10)
or
=LARGE(A1:A10,1)

Thanks. Now what is the formula for finding the largest value and then
inserting $200 in the next column, same row?

Donna,

A formula cannot directly change the value in any cell other than the cell
the formula is in so you have 2 choices.

lets assume thes evalues are in a1 down, In B1 enter
=IF(MAX($A$1:$A$100)=A1,200,"")

Or you need a macro.
