Adding a button for a specific action

Is there a way to create a button on a form to return (and display) the highest value of a text field (not a key field) from the same table?  I would assume a URL of some sort...  Thanks so very much!

    Do you mean that you gave a table with text field type and you want to return  "Aardvark" (or maybe Zebra (not sure what your definition is of highest). Is that what you mean?

      Yes, you have the correct understanding....  The text field created is an identifier that is given to records with the same association.  So, the field has many 'identifiers' ex: 20132 that is sporadically located in the column in no specific order...
      Just want to return the maximum (highest) text(number) that has been entered for that field... with a click of a button...
      Thanks!
