I need to search for the first year that the inspection was hot, in
this case 9/29/89 and 11/10/89, and return the condition code for the
last hot date in 89 in one cell and the comments for all hot dates in
89 in another, as i am consolidating into a table by years. This then
needs to be done again for cold. A formula using just the "next year
available" as the previous one needs to be used because i am leaving
space for additional dates to be added later.

To me, my question makes sense, to others it may not. Let me know if I
should rephrase this. Thankyou
