Finding the next highest value in a list
 

I have a list of meeting days/times and separate list of tasks with end
date/times. Can someone help me to produce the formula that will match
the task end date/time with the next meeting after the task is due to
complete?

Is the date/time in the same cell, or different cells?

3 01.02.2006 14:00 01.02.2006 14:00 too early
4 12.04.2006 10:00 12.04.2006 10:00 10.04.2006 11:00
5 08.05.2006 11:30 08.05.2006 11:30 10.04.2006 11:00
6
7
8
9 tasks meeting prior
10 tasks key date time to tasks
11 13.02.2006 13:00 13.02.2006 13:00 01.02.2006 14:00
12 10.04.2006 11:00 10.04.2006 11:00 01.02.2006 14:00
13 09.05.2006 11:30 09.05.2006 11:30 08.05.2006 11:30

Sorry,

B3:D5 and B11:D13 need to be sorted in ascending order of B
