But it still gives me the "value" not the "name of the variable carrying that value"... right?

Imagine if the maximum value is 100.05 I want to know also which of the var1,var2,var3,.. has this value....

Hi Shabnam,

you could do it using multiple CDEF expressions, using the IF
function, looking at each var in turn, comparing it with the
maximum earlier found.
