It is : 2^(p - 1) * (2^p - 1), where 2^p - 1 is the current highest known Mersenne prime.
As of September 06 2006, this is for p = 32 582 657. The perfect number then given by the above formula has about 19 616 715 decimal digits.

the formula for a perfect number is
2n−1(2n − 1)
where n is a prime number, so unless there is a highest prime number (unlikely) there is no highest perfect number.

There is no highest perfect number. Just like there is no lowest pefect number. Numbers are infinite and can not be defined by an end or beginning...something like that.
