Default Formula To Show Which Cell Has The Highest Rate

I work for a retail company and am trying to get the formula to show which
location has the highest rate. For instance - Brandon has 25 sales, Tampa has
30, and Clearwater has 50. This formula would automatically determine which
store has the highest and show up in RED saying BIGDOG!

Any help is better than what I have lol!

Thanks!

Default Formula To Show Which Cell Has The Highest Rate

Not knowing how many regions you want, I base my answer on three. Let's say
these are in A1:B3. In C1, enter =IF(B1=MAX($B$1:$B$3),"BIGDOG","")
Now, conditionally format range C1:C3, cell value equal to BIGDOG, format
font as Red

Ok that worked!!! thank you!!! But when I do the CF it doesn't show up red,
and the number thats largest doesn't either? I'm sorry I'm such a pain!

spreadsheet saved to a website?

Thanks

On your Home tab, just right of centre, click on Conditional Formatting, then
on Highlight Cells Rules, Text that Contains. Enter BIGDOG! in the inputbox.
Click on the down arrow next to "with", and select Red Text.
