However, due to certain information that is tied to data in "TEST123", this data should not be manipulated, change order sequence, etc.

Anybody would be able to help me in getting the desired output?

Thanks a lot.

Peter...i did not get what you mean by manipulating data or changing order sequence..since the original file is in-tact.

However, to fix your original code:

Code:
max=0
for VAL1 in `cat TEST123`; do
  if [ $VAL1 -gt $max ]; then
    max=$VAL1
   fi
done
echo "The max value is $max"

Guru.
