What is the formular to find the highest number value in a row of numbers.
This formula would have ot ignor some numbers that have an (*) beside them.
If you could please help me out, thanks.

Since number with an asterisk are text you can use

=MAX(A1:M1)

adapt top fit

row or column? beside - in another column?

=MAX(IF(B2:B200<"*",A2:A200))

which is an array formula, it should be committed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter, not
just Enter.
Excel will automatically enclose the formula in braces (curly brackets), do
not try to do this manually.
When editing the formula, it must again be array-entered.
