Assuming that A1:A1000 is a formula-free range...

=LOOKUP(REPT("z",255),A1:A1000,B1:B1000)

Who knows how I can lookup the LAST match in a column?

i.e., in A1:A1000 there's 1000 names, unsorted, with multiple names
repeated.
If I want to find the last mention of 'Bob' and then get the value of
the cell next to it, how can I do that?
The first match is no problem, but I can't figure out the last.

Thanks muchly,

Marinus.
