[kokhong]

PY & Associates, it really can make it, now i only know the purpose why do
you add the 1 to D columns..now i can finish my task aldy thanks you...

Please take care of the last entry.
If the name is single appearance, you will miss it.

At end of procedure, add "columns(4).clearcontents"

PY & associates, just now i recheck my task, i found some problem...
The script you provided me will only highlight the last name only, but
what i want is it will highlight the highest hit within the same name..soli
for bothering you again..just like below example:

A B C
IP username hits
10.10.10.1 Lee 5
10.10.10.5 Lee 30 ------->highlight
10.10.10.2 Lee 15
10.10.10.10 chan 2
10.10.10.9 chan 10 ------->highlight
10.10.10.8 chan 4

I have looked at the problem again.
It is from the data set itself.
When I copy/paste/text2column, the resulting data set could not be
sorted by two columns.

I deleted the hits column and replaced all numerals, still no joy.

I reconstructed the data set in a blank workbook, it sorted alright.
Once this is done, my logic is correct.

If you cannot overcome the problem, send me your original data.
See if I can assist.

i get the way u say. i forgot to sort columns C, initially. After listen to ur advise, i sorted column C ascending and then sorted column B ascending. After that adding your code to vba, and run the program. Finally, the result come out as what i need...Thanks for your help.
