With the name in cell C1 use the below formula. Format formula cell to date...
Please note that this is an array formula. Within the cell in edit mode (F2) paste this formula and press Ctrl+Shift+Enter to apply this formula. If successful in 'Formula Bar' you can notice the curly braces at both ends like "{=<formula}" =MAX(IF((A1:A100=C1),B1:B100)) If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "lalann" wrote: Hi, As you can see below, I have some data as below.
