Default find latest date in a row, when dates have apostrophes in it

hi,

i have the folowing problem, i want to find the latest date in a row,
the dates have the format mmm-yy.
the problem is that the MAX function won't work because some of the
dates have apostrophes in it.
the date looks like 04-'02 for example.

I already tried to delete the apostrophes with a Macro, but excel
thinks then that the date format= day-month,
so the actual date then presented with above example is 4 feb, and not
april 2002.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
